each and every one of us is responsible for the greenhouse gases we emit in our daily actions and choices. therefore, combating climate change is going to take the combined efforts of everyone on the planet.
the average household carbon footprint in china is 2.41 tons of carbon dioxide annually. that's enough to fill half an olympic swimming pool.
surprised? well, here's how you can work to reduce it:
1.get started by calculating your own carbon footprint. this will give you a starting point from which to begin monitoring your progress. you enter details such as what sort of apartment you live in, your personal energy use and travel habits.
2. each week, choose one day when you don't eat meat. meat uses up lots of energy because it takes a long time to produce. animals produce methane, which is another dangerous greenhouse gas, when they burp and fart.
3. only buy the amount of food you need and if there are leftovers, get creative. for instance, make them into a soup. ask to take food home from restaurants if there's some left, but remember to take your own container to avoid using a disposable carton.
