Hi! My name is Miguel Martínez Navarro Gonçalves Ciordia Gonzalez, I´m form Zaragoza Spain. The last week in the sochool we should a work for know our carboon footprint. The mine is 5979.
This proyect is very interseting for arouse the students with the environment and reduce our pollution. In my opinion the consume by person is very much in Spain. For curiosity I look for the consum in EE. UU. is surprising, in some states the consum is very lower but in others states (Washington, New York…) the consume is the higest of the world.
At the transports I have a high consume because I have travelled to London by plane.
I could reduce consume in home if I would haves used less hours the computer.
My consume in food and purchases is optim so I could reduce a little more but it is good

Hi! My name is Esteban, I’m from Zaragoza, Spain. Last week I did a test to calculate the CO2 I produce, and the result was 6305 kg/year.
It is a little lower than the average of my country (6968 kg/year).
I think this is very much CO2/person, we are so many people in the world and lot of people produces even more than the average.
This project is useful cause now we realize what we produce and now we can try to reduce the pollution we create. I hope produce less CO2 in the future.

I participate in this project second year and I really feel the benefit of it. My CO2 emissions had decreased, so I hope that this project will help you to. Wish you good luck with that!

Sarah N-Spain Feb. 21, 2012
I like it!!! It's very cool! And there you have the lyrics of the song:
Now the damage has been done
And this machine has begun on a path of destruction
We need the medicine
To reverse what's been done
Before this disease has destroyed everything we know
Everything we know!
All we need is a reason (all we need is a reason)
All we need is right here inside us all
With our weapons drawn and all our resources gone
We're facing extinction
The only antidote consists of blood, sweat, and hope
And a blueprint to save us from all that we've become
All that we've become!
All we need is a reason (all we need is a reason)
All we need is right here inside us all
All we need is a reason (all we need is a reason)
All we need is right here inside us
Here inside us all!
Yeah!
Oh
Now the gears they will fail to turn
As the lights go out
And the sun will be all that burns on our way down
(On our way down)
But right now we have to understand the problem
And overcome!
So arm yourself
You'll mind your gun
It's time to learn
Accept what's done, and yeah
Repair this destruction!
All we need is a reason
All we need is right here inside us
All we need is a reason (all we need is a reason)
All we need is right here inside us all
All we need is a reason (all we need is a reason)
All we need is right here inside us all
(All we need is a reason)
All we need is a reason
(All we need is a reason)
Whoooaaaa
(All we need is a reason)
All we need is a reason
All we need is right here inside us
Here inside us all! -

I think that this project is very good for know about ecologyc. in my coutntry people have to think about it alot. I see that people don’t talk seriously about environment or recycle. in my school, people do things like recycle paper or using the light only when we need it. and we turn of the computers when we don’t use them too.

I agree with your opinion, but I think that every country needs to think about CO2 emissions.

Hello my name is Francisca and I live in Spain. I do not know if my ecological footprint is less than the average for Spain but I guess I am below average because I am quite aware of the serious problems that the environment suffers and recycle at home, close the tap while I brush teeth, I put the dishwasher when full, and my transportation is the bicycle or public transport,although this is also related to the place where I live, because if I lived in China for example would run my bike and ecological footprint would be minor and lived in an underdeveloped country like the Congo would be much lower because the houses do not have artificial lights or running water. I take care of the environment, but also know that many people do it and we can allget better.

In many homes in India we do not use running water for anything else except taking a shower. For all the rest we open the tap and fill a mug/vessel/bucket suitable for the purpose and use the water fairly conservatively.
Part of the reason is water is a scarce resource in India. The other part is habit inculcated by family training. Ofc i do see a little less of teh latter now!

Vittorio Masoni Feb. 18, 2012
You are absolutely right.
Family training is the main source of ways of life which reject wasteful practices— about anything, beginning with water. Schools, public policies and mass media are important, indeed. But as to consumption habits, nothing is as strong and lasting for the entire life as what we learn from year 1 on. Let us pass the message to our children and spread the concept worldwide that many people could live as comfortably as they do now even after they cut a good percentage of what they acquire- look at the garbage cans and closets of so many peoples on earth.
The productive system can well expand and create work opportunities by providing products and services for a lean society, rather than expand for making things for overfed people who equate consumption levels to well being.

I’m A. Sandovalin, since I met demi ecological footprint results, my good habits have improved ecological increased.
one thing that caught my attention was that the amount of CO2 that produced my feed was higher than pruducia my movement and my house.
I now try to adopt habits such as reusing and recycling paper, turning off lights, electronic devices when not’m using.
truly the realization of this study has amazed me since I checked the number of people who are willing has to do something to remedy this problem that affects us all.
