I need only one earth to support my lifestyle. My footprint is like this because we use less transportation and we siblings share rooms and takes up less space than other families. The worst thing we do in our environment is we drive up to 10 km per week and travel by air for about 25 or more hrs every year. We use electricity at home but sometimes we do misuse it. We can make it smaller by changing our lifestyle and habits towards using toxic material, burning fossil fuels and electricity. The three things we can do to make a difference with global warming are
1. Use Energy Saving Bulbs rather than usual bulbs.
2. Turn off heat/air conditioners while leaving home or when it’s not needed.
3. Recycle paper and pop cans.

Sameen,
Driving can use a lot of energy, but sometimes it is necessary. I like your idea about the energy saving bulbs.
