  3. On the carbon footprint calculator I recieved a 23. I was only 4 points below the U.S. average which isn't very much less. 88 percent of my carbon output was home energy and the least amount was the driving and flying. My driving and flying was both 0 because nobody in my family ever flew and we keep maintaince on our vehicles.

  7. We are about on the average line, so its not to bad. but I think there are things we could do better like walk places, turn out lights more often, ext. But it we do good because we recycle and have a compost bin, so you know it cold be worse.
