Carbon Footprints

What is Carbon Footprints? Carbon footprints means : The total amount of greenhouse gases produced to directly and indirectly support human activities, usually expressed in equivalent tons of carbon dioxide.

I have visited this site footprint to measure my footprints. Also I have another website to check my footprints and the second website was myfootprint.

The sites measures some of important things in our life such as : traveling, living, food and the amount of buying important and unimportant things.

After I have finished from measuring my footprint in this world. Unfortunately, I'm causing what is equal to 3.74 planets ! as I got from this site footprint. I couldn't believe my self so I went to a second website to measure my footprints again and the result was 1.45 planets, the second website was myfootprint. The average from the two sites was 2.62 planets! it means that I'm using a sources of 2.62 planets and causing alot of emittions in the earth.

I think its time to reduce using unimportant things. We have to close the lights everytime we leave our room. We have to use our cars when we have to otherwise we suppose to use alternatives to travel. We don't need to travel every year between the countries.

We are causing alot of CO2. It's time to co-operate and stops the emittions in our beautiful world.
