Our Carbon Footprint

Our Carbon Footprint

Today, students learned what a carbon footprint is by playing the Carbon Footprint game. Students learned about different human activities that increase and reduce our carbon footprints. In the Carbon Footprint game, students made decisions that affected their carbon footprint, but were also presented with situations where they could not make decisions. This is meant to show that our carbon footprint is affect by our decisions but also by external factors that are out of our control. Students had the option to play the game again, and make decisions based on things they know will reduce their carbon footprint. For an extension, students can plant a tree! To get a donated tree, contact XXX and tell them your interest in planting a tree to help reduce your carbon footprint!
