Phase II
3. Reflect: How does this challenge or change the way you think about your future?
I feel that our future is slowly fading away, the way we live today, is slowly pushing the limits of the earth. For me, if i keep living the way i live, it would take two earths to sustain the planet. The fact that we only have 1 earth is actually very scary.

4. How can our economic system change to make it more feasible for you to reduce your carbon footprint? Compare with America's Economic Goals. What do they mean? What needs to be added to take into account climate change?

In order to reduce my ecological footprint, I would have to follow many rules that would preserve the planet. I would have to use less electricity, water, food, and other resources. In order to do this, I have to shut down whatever I don’t need when I’m not occupying them such as electricity and water. I will have to do more walking or other exercises for transportation instead of driving or using public transport. I would also need to consume more organic things instead of consuming inorganic things. I’m not sure if this can reduce my ecological footprint to one planet, but it will definitely make a big difference. They mean that there’s many aspects that caused climate change and that there needs to be more restrictions to everyone in order to change it. People must be restricted from overusing gasoline too much but the government is being bribed by the companies to let them sell their planet killing substances. Therefore first the government must be changed first before anything else and then change how other people think about the major change that will be difficult. I used many planet preservation websites to get ideas on how to change myself and society in order to save our planet.
