Blog Project: Carbon Footprint
There are various ways to measure our impact on the earth from an environmental standpoint. One of these ways is by way of our carbon footprint. In the following report, I will define what a carbon footprint is, show how a carbon footprint is measured, show how I rank in comparison to others, my country and the world as a whole and finally I will make some suggestions as to how we can reduce our carbon footprints.
Let’s now look at best to define what a carbon footprint is. A carbon footprint is a means of measuring our group of greenhouse gases caused directly and indirectly. “The total set of GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions caused directly and indirectly by an individual, organization, event or product” (Carbon footprint 1).
There are many ways to measure carbon footprint. One way which are how many bad rooms that we spend in our house? Yet another point is that the salary we got it per month. Third point is the water consumption by swimming pool. Finally, the temperature in your house must be worm.
Now I will rank compared with my classmates. I ranked in 2.26 between my friends, and I ranked in 4th. Abdulla Salem ranked in 2.725 but Sultan Hanash ranked 1.84 compeering to Hassan Al Braiki who’s ranked 4.57. Finally Selah Al Amri ranked 2.2.
I think we should reduce carbon footprint by reduce the water for example (Fill the kettle with only as much water as you need) (Reduce Your Carbon Footprint1) .There are many ways to measure carbon footprint. Another point which is Electricity consumption by how many TV’s used in houses. Yet another point is that water consumption by Crop irrigation and having shower more than 2 times a day. Third point is that how many times you spend Oil consumption annually. Finally, when you go out you have to switch off the electricity.
In brief, this report helped me to primarily become more aware of my impact on the environment and take into consideration ways that I can also benefit the environment by becoming a responsible energy user.
