Hello, my name is Alejandro Pérez.
I live in Spain, in the city of Zaragoza.
After having done the test I have reached the conclusion that my carbon footprint is not very high.
Although in the aspect related to the home energy i think, my footprint is too high.

According to the transportation, I could recommeng my city official to provide people more places to hire bycicles in orden to reduce the pollution.
My carbon footprint is low because I always use the public transportation or I walk.

According to related to the home energy my carbon footprint is very high.
In order to solve this problem I have decided to use low-consumption bulbs and also in summer I wont use air conditioners, I will use fans instead.

Regarding to the food my carbon footprint is low.
In my opinion people should choose food produced close to your home. This will help avoiding the use of the transportation like cars.

Finally, my carbon footprint in purchases is very low in comparisson with the average because I’m not a consumer person, I like saving money and energy.

Finally I want just to say that this experience has been very usefull because I have realised that I have to reduce my carbon footprint.

THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH!! :)

Good bye.

I’m David Turbica, from Spain.
I won’t lie, I didn’t want to join this project, but it didn’t depend on me, the teacher was who ask us to participate in it.
However, I tried to take it seriously and answer the questions as accurately as I could.
Results said that my carbon dioxide emissions were lower than my country’s average. That didn’t surprise me, but what really surprised me was the distribution of the

levels in the four fields. For example, my transportation amount is about six times lower than the average, but the truth is that I do not travel much. Something similar

happens with purchases, three times lower. But I can’t understand why my diet is 1500 kg over the average, and no, I’m not fat. Does it mean that I have to eat less? or

maybe that I have to become vegetarian? Because I won’t. I can turn off lights, use less water, travel even less or not to fly by plane, isolate the windows, use the

public transportation, …, there are lots of ways to reduce the carbon dioxide emisions, but what I won’t never do is to change my diet, I like it.
At the end it has help me to draw conclusions.

Hello, my name is Adriana and I’m from Calarasi (Romania). I finished the carboon footprint test and this is lower than the average person of the United States. my total footprint is 5707 kg of Co2 per year. My higher carbon footprint is home because I use household appliances. I go every day on foot to school three miles and so I reduce to my consumption of carbon. I use energy saving bulbs in my home. I try to recicle paper and plastic and use them later for different works. I think for me to reduce carbon consumption should spend less time on TV or on the computer and to concentrate me on saving the environment.

Hello, my name is Inés and I’m from Zaragoza (Spain). My carbon footprint is low, but I think that it could be lower.
Every day I go to school by car, and to reduce my footprint, I could go by public transport. At home, most of the bulbs are energy-saving, but we still have a few normal light bulbs to change. Furthermore, at this Christmas, I got a new phone, like many people I know. But, do we really need those new electronic devices? Not actually, we only bought it because we want it, because it’s cool.
It’s sad that we are so selfish, but that’s something we must change, and start thinking a bit on our planet.

Hi! I,m Jorge and I’m from Spain. I finished the carbon footpring test and my carbon footprint is in the Spain’s average; and somes alternatives for my city could be turn off the street lights when is of day, also could begin to build building with solar panels and the transports could run with eco-fuels.
Other alternatives for my school is necesary, for example, to create a recycle bin in each class because all the paper is throw to rubbish bin and isn’t recycling.

hello, my name is Isabel i’m from spain my carbon footprint is average but in transport my carbon footprint is low.
My recommendations for my city officials would, for example, that promoted the use of public transport and whether the travel is short cycling or even walking, at home we must try to use less energy possible for example by using energy saving light bulbs or filling the entire machine for full benefits.

Hello there. I´m Alejandro Esteban. I´m from Spain. I finished the Carbon Footprint test: the result was 6337 kg of CO2. It´s a bit lower than the average of Spain.

I think the reason we produce so much pollution nowadays is because we want. Really. We buy and buy without thinking in the consequences. Too much people say they care about environment, but are two-faced and don´t really care. Do you really want a new mobile phone just because yours has a worse camera? Even if you know that kids in the Congo die extracting coltan that those mobiles use? Of course you can buy a new one, but please, when you need it.

In my opinion, being green doesn´t mean living outdoors and wearing old clothes, like some people think. It just means be aware of the consequences for the planet of your acts. You can do little things to help your planet. It´s our obligation to recycle the garbage we produce . Also, we should reuse paper; always remember to turn off the lights, after drinking water turn the tap off…
We could use solar panels to heat the water in our houses or produce electricity if we lived in a sunny place. A green transport that didn´t produce any pollution would be a great idea. A campaign that makes people aware about recycling would help, and there should be lots of parks and green zones.

A greener planet is possible, but only if we all collaborate and don´t think ” It´s not up to me” !

I definitely could not give up my cell phone.

I think one thing we have to think about is how smart phones have made it so we don’t have to travel to work to work. That reduces our carbon footprint. Mail has dwindled to very little thanks to online bill-paying and email. Imagine what a difference it makes having so much less paper. The United States is discussing having no postal delivery on Saturdays—another cut-back in emissions. I go to the store less, because I shop online through Amazon (which uses a lot of packaging, I will admit).

Hi I´m Alberto Ibáñez and I´m from Zaragoza (Spain). My carbon footprint was a bit lower than the average of Spain. The area where my results were higher was transport because last year I took four flights, but I will try to reduce these results making a carbon offsetting, recycling as much as possible and using more often public transport and the bike. I think that with this proyects and all that stuff we could make people much more environmentally conscious, not just spaniards,I mean everybody. We also have to potenciate renowable energies such as solar energy or biomass.

For reduce carbon footprint ,in transportation for example go to places walking, or bicycling, in home reduce the time I stay in computer or watching TV and don’t use stand-by and purchases buy only that you need , don’t buy very mp3 or phones because Its manufacture is bad for the environment.
