Decrease Carbon Footprint!!




One thing that i learned about the oil is that we depend too much on oil and we dont even know that, oil is really important in our lifes. Its part of our life and we use oil on everything we have and people dont know that. For example they dont know that electricity has oil and ALL the people use electricity too much to watch TV, talk on the phone, use the computer, or use any other electronic that uses electricity. I think that some changes as a communnity that we need to made to start to break our oil dependence is to use less things that have oil for example electricity, sopa, shampoo, toothpaste tubes, lotion, spray, make-up, and many other. What I could do to decrease my carbon footprint is walk to school and walk to other places that are not far and only tell my dad to take me to places when its far. Also when im not using the computer or watching TV unplug them so I wont waste a lot of light/electricity. One thing that Im already doing is recycle cans, my dad has bags were we put the cans to recycle them. I think that one way to motivate other people to do the same is by informing them about this oil crisis and all the effects that it has. Also by letting them know that most things have oil and how we really depend on oil and we have to decrease our carbon footprint.
