How To Reduce Your Carbon Footprint
But here are some tips that you need to know to reduce carbon footprint:
Replace Light Bulbs
Replace your current light bulbs CFL or compact fluorescent bulbs. CFL’s last 15 times longer and uses 80% less electricity than the regular ones.
Less Plastic
If you are going to shop, choose stores that use the smallest amount of packaging materials to pack what you have bought.
If you have old bags in your house, bring it and let them pack them with your old packing bags. This way you can help the store and the environment at once.

Go Local

Ditch Plastic Bottles
Try buying reusable containers or much better try drinking from a canteen or at home. In this way, you will not add to the number of bottles unused and just trashed for nothing, and maybe later in burnt.
Efficient Vehicles
When you are thinking of buying a car make sure you choose the best. And by the best means go for an electric car or maybe a hybrid car or better a fuel-efficient car.
Always Unplug
When you are away you need to unplug your appliances in your house so that you can save energy and because most of the appliances draw electricity even if they are not used. If followed, you are thereby working on lessening your carbon footprint.
Reduce, Reuse and Recycle
These three words sound like a nursery rhyme but surely these three represents a very important role.
We usually forgot how to reuse old things and just go to supermarkets and shop for what we need. Try to buy lesser and fix things that have been broken.
In recycling, try to label your trash bins so that it would be a lot easier in segregating the trash.
To make all of the things above more effective, talk to your family and friends and tell them about the methods of reducing carbon footprint. In this way, you can make sure that your efforts will be seen in maximum amounts because you are not alone in making all of these changes.
Who knows what will happen next? It is better to act now and reduce carbon footprint than wait for someone to do it for us.
