Eairlier we talked about how carbon dioxide is a green house gas and how it's like adding another blanket to our wonderful home. But did you ever think about who did it? Not big foot, not mother nature, and not everything you hate. Yes, us. WE did it. WE are the cause of this. There is word for this, our carbon footprint. Car-Bon Foot-Print. All the carbon dioxide that we let into our Earth is our fault. With the damand of more electricity more CO2 is out in the air. When you drive a car, leave the lights on, eating and drinking, heating or cooling, your adding to the CO2 to the envirnment, otherwise known as adding to your carbon footprint. But I'm not saying not to eat or not to drive, but take these tips to mind.
1. In the winter set your thermoustat to 68 degrese. And in the summer set it to about 76. The idea of this is to use less energy to warm or cool your house.
2. EAT LESS MEAT! The rainforest traps CO2, but we cut them down to feet the meet we eat!
3. SHORTER SHOWERS! Short and easy, we have to heat the water, so the less water the less electicity used to heast it.
4. DON'T BUY WATER BOTTLES! Just use re-useable ones. Take my word. Thanks.
5. Reasearch to learn more. Spread the world. Please.
People, we all still have a chance to SAVE THE WORLD 2 DAY! We can do it! Save the world for our future people! They'll thank us, and we'll congragulate our selfs knowing we did the right thing. Save the one thing we all love. Our home. Reduce your carbon footprint. Save our world. Think. Know. Do.
