Yes, I think that I should lower my CO2 emissions and I should: * Try to not use cars a lot. * Save water * Use less electricity * Use less natural gas * Recycle, reuse and reduce more
We have to try to keep our CO2 emissions very low to help ourselves, the planet, and all the living things in it. IF we don’t give importance to this, the world would suffer and living things would disappear. If living things disappear, we will disappear.

What happened with Isidro Baldenegro and his situation was that the police had already noticed that the two men were in charge of caring for the trees for not being destroyed, in summary, they were in charge of caring for the environment. But the police arrested them unfairly so they could continue cutting trees. I think they were prisoners with conscience because, according to the facts, they were in the same place they saw a bunch of people walking, and then the 2 men walked off towards a wooded area. And the police assumed and thought they were criminals without having any specific evidence about the occurred events.

The main protected sanctuaries in Mexico are: * Islas e Islotes de Bahía de Chamela (The islands of Isla La Pajarera, Isla Cocinas, Isla Mamut, Isla Colorada, Isla San Pedro, Isla San Agustín, Isla San Andrés, and Isla Negrita, and the islets Los Anegados, Novillas, Mosca y Submarino) * Puerto Arista in Chiapas * Playa de Tierra Colorada in Guerrero * Playa Piedra de Tlacoyunque in Guerrero * Playa Cuitzmala in Jalisco * Playa de Mismaloya in Jalisco * Playa el Tecuan in Jalisco
The sanctuaries that are located in Jalisco are the nearest to my place of residence. The consumerism of our society is harsh and ugly, every mass productive product you buy comes from a long way from where you bought it. First natural resources are extracted and taken to a factory where they make the products and release toxic gases to the air. Then the products are taken to the place you buy them. After you buy them, after some time you throw that away to the trash and go buy more. The trash is take to a dumpster where the trash is probably burnt and release more toxic gases. All trucks are the ones that move the resources, the products, and the trash, trucks release toxic gases too.
This is why consumerism has an impact on nature, this complex process contaminates the earth. I think that the use of “green” products is way better than using regular products but although green products contaminate way less, they still contaminate. We need to keep our carbon footprint as low as possible because this world is going to kill us if we don’t take care of it.
Global warming is the consequence of the green house effect. This effect states that carbon dioxide in the atmosphere lets the sunrays in, but not out making the world hotter and hotter every time we contaminate it. Global warming is happening now and if we don’t do something about it the world will get so hot that the ice caps will melt and cause many natural disasters.
Our carbon footprint is related to global warming because the bigger our footprint is, the more we are contributing to the global warming and the destruction of this world.
