My personal footprint comes mainly from the imported and processed food I eat.

If everyone lived like me, we’d need 3.4 planet earths to provide enough resources for everyone.I believe that because of my public transport use and how often I buy goods that my carbon footprint is less than others around me.Some strategies that can change our global footprint include reducing the amount of animal products you currently eat by half. By every Australian doing this, we’d use 18 million fewer global hectares, an area that could cover 8 million football fields. We could also pledge to purchase products that used less packaging or were made out of 100% (PCR) recycled material. By every Australian doing this, we’d use 14 million fewer global hectares, and area that could cover 6 million football fields.
