The Copenhagen summit was a fiasco considering the expectations it had arose for favour of environment protection. Lot was said about reducing the emissions of green house gases. But nothing can hold good unless individual initiatives form a movement. What an individual can do is reduce his own carbon footprint. A carbon footprint is measure of impact of activities of an individual on the environment. for details pl see www.carbonfootprint.com or any other sites appearing on google search of the word. One can very well calculate your home/business carbon footprint and pledge something like planting a tree & tending it for growth or pledge some amount for offset. My appeal is to do something quickly and help save our earth.
