Carbon Footprint

      I produce a 52 ton carbon foot print each per year. My home energy is 71.2% of the foot print, driving and flying 15,8%, recycling and waste 1.8%, food and diet 11.2%. My carbon foot print is two times as large than the typical american and when it comes to percentage my home is the main contributor. My recycling, driving and food percentages are less the the typical american.  Compared to the world average I am ten times the average of the world. My home could be better insulated that it already is. I could walk to get around town instead of using my car. Starting a compost heap would allow more recycling. If i were to eat more organic foods
