Keep a record of your consumption for a single day by completing the ecological footprint calculator. Be sure to include: energy, food, water, transportation, shelter, and clothing. Provide a 1 page, double-spaced reflection on your answers, keeping in mind the course themes. Some questions to consider are: Did the calculation differ from your expectations? Do you think that the calculator portrays your lifestyle and/or your footprint accurately? Why or why not? What are some of the areas where you could save points and reduce your footprint?
The assignment is due by March 13 via e-mail.
