Reducing Carbon Emissions John Ardell

Buy Local Or Organic: -If it’s local it didn’t have to travel that far. Organic foods are much more likely to have been produced in an eco- friendly manner. -Foodstuffs Like coffee and other large crop farms take a lot of machinery to maintain -Most non-local foods are imported from far-away countries. Necessitating long distance transport results in an increase of the carbon footprint of foreign items. -Buy foods with less excess packaging or ones with recycled or recyclable packaging

Reduce Energy consumption Around your Home Compact fluorescent bulbs use about 90 percent less energy than incandescent bulbs, (Energy Star reports) If every household in the United States replaced one incandescent light with a CFL, it would save enough energy to light 300 million homes for an entire year Ask about special energy-efficient offers when you buy new appliances, There are offers and rebates out there for buying efficient.

Efficient Cars Most states actually have rebates for driving an electric or hybrid car, or even just having a more efficient than average car Avoiding excess Idling (like heating before you drive in winter) and keeping good maintenance upon your car (regular oil changes,tires,etc) can increase your fuel efficiency up to 5% Drive slower on the highway Carry less weight. For every excess 50 lbs your car carries it loses.25 mpg
