My Carbon FootPrint Task 5

I have measured my carbon footprint and it turned out 3.05; some students had less than me and some had more than me. The average carbon footprint for our class CRB is 3.778.

The main factors for my carbon footprint are :

First comes the *Stuff*

Second comes the *Travel*

Third comes the *Home*

What can I do to reduce my carbon footprint?

I should stop spending lots of money buying stuff that release carbon into the world, which is immposible because everyone needs stuff that makes them smell nice.

Next comes the traveling part. I travel from place to place each year but the problem is that there aren't direct flights for all the countries. Abu Dhabi is a hot country. I cant move from place to place using buses and waiting for one on a sunny day where it is 40 degrees out. Most of the times I transpot using a taxi from home to the college and I guess it's the same as taking a bus.

After that comes my home; there is lots of carbon footprint because mostly we use air conditioners at home with the hot weather so most likely there is no other way that we can reduce this footprint.
At the end comes my food; well I have been on a diet lately and I mostly eat everything that can be eaten, I'm not a vegetarian. I go to the gym 6 times a week to train and stay healthy.

An Inconvenient Truth Task 4

According to the movie that Brandon Fibbs talked about the global warming, no doubt it is no longer a theory and it will be happening in future. Showing us important charts about how the earth is being affected by the humans and how we need to fix and try and solve this problem. Al Gore proved and showed a lot of evidence how humans are destroying the planet earth and at the same time he listed many possible ways of stopping it.

Scott Nash says that Al Gore should be blamed for the CO2 emissions and telling the people to stop. He forgot he is a part of it, he is traveling from place to place and contributing the CO2. Scott Nash also mentioned that Al Gore talked about Bush which makes it clear that Al Gore is trying to focus on the political side rather than the subject of preventing the global warming. At the end he talked about his family loss.

In my opinion, as Brandon Fibbs mentioned that global warming is coming, it doesn't matter when, but it is, and people should know about it and try to prevent it. Same goes for Scott Nash; he was right about Al Gore but let's keep in mind if he didn't deliver this message to the world no one else will; it doesnt matter if he is trying to do it using his family or political ways. I believe that people should follow Al Gore's message and try to help the planet .
