How to Reduce Our Own Carbon Footprint

Our personal carbon footprint is the amount of carbon dioxide that we put into the air when we use electricity, drive a car, and heat or cool the house. Individual effort is especially significant. We can make simple changes in daily behavior to reduce our own carbon footprint. First, walk or bike instead of driving a car. Emissions from cars and trucks contribute to the greenhouse effect. Second, doing recycle and use recycled paper, glass and plastic everywhere. Because they use less energy to manufacture than products made from completely new materials.Third, turn off the heat, air conditioning and lights when you leave the house or go to bed. Finally, plant the trees. Trees naturally offset the greenhouse gases. They take in carbon dioxide and turn it into oxygen. To sum up, encouraging more people to do likewise, we can reduce carbon emissions impact on our lives, on environment and on future generations.

Reading a Book Or Watching a Movie

Do you prefer to read a book first or watching a movie first? I would say both have their advantages but I prefer to read the book first. When I read the book I can create pictures in my mind and then I watch the movie to meet my expectations. With reading, we can use our imagination. We can stop and reread a passage whenever we want. On the other hand, we do not have time to image with a movie, because it hurry past. When I read the book before watching the move, I often find some part of the book is missing from the movie. This is why reading the book first is best if I can. However, I will always enjoy and use films to develop my imagination.
