Carbon Footprint.

A carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gases (including carbon dioxide and methane) that are generated by our actions

Per capita carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions in India have soared in recent decades, climbing from 0.39 metric tons in 1970 to a high of 1.91 metric tons in 2022. This was an increase of 5.5 percent in comparison to 2021 levels.

Our carbon footprint has a negative impact on the environment in multiple ways: It is the main cause of human-induced climate change, it contributes to urban air pollution, it leads to toxic acid rain, it adds to coastal and ocean acidification, and it worsens the melting of glaciers and polar ice.

Turn off lights and unplug devices when you're not using them, Promote the use of EV's (Electrical Vehicles), Switch to renewable energy sources, Try recycle your waste at home, Choose energy-efficient appliances. These are just some of the ways by which we can reduce our carbon footprint.
