Nowadays, a person uses four times more energy than a person from 100 years ago. This means that the amount of carbon emissions which affects our planet increased as much. The protection of our planet regards all of us and it shouldn’t be so difficult to do something important for the place where you live.
The majority of us are used to waste energy by warming, cooling or illuminating our houses. Taking some simple measures, like changing the bulb with an ecological one or turning off the machines when we don’t need them, can look inessential, but this steps can help us to reduce carbon emissions.

- Calculate your carbon footprint
- Change every single usual bulb with an ecological one that save energy
- Turn off the TV, computer, radio and other machines when you don’t use them
- Minimize the level of heating from the house during the winter and wear a pullover instead
- Minimize the level of air-conditioning during the summer time or by a ventilator

Economizing water we'll save the energy that is necessary for collecting, cleaning and delivering it. If you don’t waste it, you can reduce your carbon footprint and fight against global warming.
- Turn off the tap when your brushing your teeth
- You should do more often short showers, in stead of baths
- Wash the dishes manual
- You can tock rain water to water the flowers, plants

The biggest part from housekeeper rubbish is carried to the cesspit. Here are eliminated in the atmosphere different gases, when the litter decomposes.
- Recycle as much as you can
- Transform the alimentary oddments into compost for your garden
- Carry all the bottles to a retrieval center
- Keep the old magazines, books, clothes and toys in order to donate them
Every one of us can fight against the climate change by using few water and electricity. But if you want to do something significant, you can go further. The clothes that you wear, the food that you consume and all the products that you use redound at the creation of your carbon footprint. Some simple, daily decisions can make the difference concerning the pollution caused by our lifestyle.

The future of our planet depends on our actions – realized with an ecological purpose. By reducing the carbon emissions, by developing new technologies and by using new sources of energy (solar, Aeolian etc.) we’ll redound at stopping global warming. It’s up to us to wait and do nothing or to act and protect Earth’s future.
You can make the difference!
