A carbon footprint is the amount of greenhouse gases -primarily carbon dioxide-

released into the atmosphere by a particular human activity. A carbon footprint can
be a broad measure or be applied to the actions of an individual, a family, an
event, an organization, or even an entire nation. It is usually measured as tons of
CO2 emitted per year, a number that can be supplemented by tons of CO2-
eguivalent gases including methane, nitrous oxide, and other greenhouse gases.

In my carbon footprint activity which is reducing the release of carbon


dioxide. I noticed that my daily activity of reducing carbon is very effective through
the responsible of helping our earth to become better in a simple way of doings.
This could be the best that we are going to do to our earth. In the first place I didn't
know about carbon footprint. The only thing that have known is about carbon
dioxide which is a gas that is produced when people and animals breath out or
when certain fuels are burned and others. Now that I learned about the carbon
footprint that there are negative effect in our atmosphere wherein we experience
such climate change. It happens because people are not reducing the release of
their carbon on their daily doings. They use their vehicle to go somewhere even
though its not too far. Others are using plastic bags when they are buying foods
and other things in the markets. And there are many things that we've done in
releasing tons of carbon dioxide because we didn't know the effect of releasing
carbon.

Since we given the task on how we reduce the release amount of carbon
dioxide. The things that I did was eating less of foods, reducing the use of
electricity, taking public transportation, using reusable bags, using solar flashlight,
and etc. I believed that this kind of simple doing has a big impact. Even though
sometimes its hard to reduce the release tons of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
In addition since we are now in a battle of the Novel Corona Virus (Covid19) that is
pandemic all over the world. Millions of peoples died because of this virus
transmission. Despite of this situation I'm thankful because of Enhance Community
Quarantine (ECQ) mandatory ,we reduce the release of carbon dioxide. And also
because of this our mother earth is well-rested even though in a short period of
time.
