The Impact Of The Human Footprint

What is a Human Footprint? A human footprint the ecological impact of a persons life on Earth.



Here is my ecological foot print. Many people don't think about their daily activities; how they get to school, what house they live in, or how what they eat affects the world.  If you look above you can see the many ways to help your community, or even the world.

If one person turned off one light in a house it impacts the worlds footprint. It doesn't take much. If everyone took action to use less electricity, grow a garden, or even carpool with friends when driving places, it will make this world a better place. One person at a time!

My result wasn't too bad, but then again no ones is perfect and there is always a way to improve. My goal is to try and turn off any electrical appliances that aren't in use to reduce the energy impact in my house. Hopefully everyone who reads this has a chance to reflect on how they're impacting the world, so we can make this world a better place.
