Reducing Your Carbon Footprint


     Why should we reduce our carbon footprint?  Easy answer…..for our children and our children’s children.  Reducing your carbon footprint is very easy-just need to live intentionally and think about issues affecting our earth.  Want to know how you can make a difference?  Here is one way to do this:

Use CFL light bulbs- Easy right?  One bulb replaced can reduce up to 1300 lbs. of carbon dioxide over the course of it’s lifetime.  That is why they are stopping production of incandescent bulbs!  If every house in the USA used CFL bulbs, we could reduce the electricity used for lighting by 50%!  Change out all of those old bulbs and help our planet!  See, I told you it was easy!  More tips to come!
