Carbon Footprint : How to be a more responsible global citizen
by car, switch on a TV, or use anything that requires energy, we are responsible for producing greenhouse gases. At home, at school, and in shops, there are many things we can do to reduce our carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions – and save energy and money at the same time! But being part of the problem means also being part of the solution. Before thinking about efficient ways to reduce our impact on the planet, we need to know how much our different behaviors impact our carbon footprint.
