Local Solutions

There are many ways to lessen your effect on greenhouse gases which is also called you carbon foot print. I did some things to lessen my own carbon foot print such as use environmental friendly light bulbs which last much longer and use less energy. I also used Facebook to create a group to raise awareness and get people who want to stop this problem together. Also on Facebook I made and event that for a full day you do everything in your power to lessen your carbon foot print. There are many things you can do yourself such as carpool or use public transportation, turn off lights when you don’t need them, buy environmentally friendly light bulbs, unplug things that only need electricity when you use them such as a blender or toaster. If you want to go bigger and really help the world you can buy a hybrid car or set up some solar panels to provide energy to your home.
