Description
In this activity, students take the time to identify some of the parts of their life that contribute to their carbon footprint. By drawing some of these activities out and ranking how their behavior affects their footprint, students can see the impact their choices have on the environment. Based on their answers to questions about transportation, water use, diet, recycling, and energy use, they'll come up with a score for their carbon footprint.
