Footprint

     To support my not so efficient lifestyle it will take 4.8 Earths! Basically if everyone on Earth lived the way I do, we would not have enough resources to support us all. People, including myself, find some going "green" lifestyles inconvenient. Instead of simply having a garden out back and growing certain foods, I find it easier to go out and buy already made food and go to the gym after. Sometimes I forget to turn the fans off in the house or leave the water running when I am brushing my teeth. These simple things waste resources and the Earth is having a hard time renewing them compared to how fast we are using them. The areas that were larger than the rest were services and food.
     After seeing how much how I live impacts Earth, it definitely makes me want to go green and help restore planet Earth! :(

  1. I find it so hard to remember to turn off the water when I'm brushing my teeth. It's something I really need to start turning that off.

  2. I agree with what you are saying about living green isn't always convenient for all of us. However it is also important to everyone that we try our best to be more "green".

  3. Im the same exact way, I never recycle or reuse anything. But now I see how important is to "go green" and keep the earth clean.

  4. I try to remember to turn off the water when I brush my teeth but I can never remember when I wash my face!
