Weather you are starting the new year hoping to be more active, eat healthier, or save $ finding a way to get there can be a great start. A good way to start, l always say is to stop trying and start doing. I know a Tesla or other electric vehicle is in all of our futures, however there are things that you can do now to live happy and with the assuredness that you are doing your part in preserving our planet and minimize your carbon footprint.

Nature.org is a great website to understand the impact we have on the planet, how much we are consuming, and more importantly, what can we do to help reduce pollution. The website notes that Americans produce almost 16 tons or 35000 lbs. of basically carbon, travel being the number 1 producing of this amount, and it needing to drop to 2 tons or 4400 lbs. by the year 2050 for us to see a difference. Start the year with the right foot and be mindful of your carbon footprint 🙂
