How Green are you?!

Have you ever wondered what kind of affect you have on the world? Or what you can do to change that affect? 


You can calculate your carbon footprint here:

What is your carbon footprint?! "Inevitably, in going about our daily lives — commuting, sheltering our families, eating — each of us contributes to the greenhouse gas emissions that are causing climate change. Yet, there are many things each of us, as individuals, can do to reduce our carbon emissions. The choices we make in our homes, our travel, the food we eat, and what we buy and throw away all influence our carbon footprint and can help ensure a stable climate for future generations." (nature.org) 

Sooo how did you score? I was surprised to find out so how high mine was; it was just below the national average in everything except for driving.  Not happy with your score?! Go to this link below for some tips on how to go green
