Carbon Footprint



Carbon Footprint





Have you ever heard about carbon footprint? A carbon footprint is one way to measure your effect on the earth. My carbon footprint 2.85 that’s mean I need nearly three planet to live.

The first one is I eat meat and fish a lot in week so that effect the climate when they transport meat to our country because we import meats from foreign countries. A further point is that I travel a lot by plane; most of my trips are neighbourhood countries but it also affects the atmosphere because of fuel which planes burn. A last important point is using air conditioning. Here in the Middle East we use AC a lot because of the weather and that effect the earth also.

Of course, every problem has solution. One answer is I will try to eat different kinds of food and the UAE try to increase agriculture. Another solution is that I will reduce my trips but I don’t think that will reduce carbon because the alternative is a vehicle which is also use fuel. A final answer is that people or companies built villas which keep the temperature to help people not use AC that much.

To conclude, carbon footprint is one of component which threads our planet. We have to reduce that to save our planet because we live on one planet and we should care about other people who live with us.
