Eco footprint diary




















In class we have been looking eco footprints and how we could reduce our own.
Heres a site that calculates your eclogical footprint http://www.earthday.net/footprint/
We decided that we have to come up with three things that we would do to reduce it.
here are my three things:

I will recycle more

I will have shorter showers and sometimes have cold ones

and I will also buy energy saving light bulbs

Kris Wilson


Here is a house he designed


He came in to our class on Wednesday to talk to us about sustainable architecture and what it is. Sustainable architecture is all about trying to use as little energy in your house as possible. Its also trying to create as little waste while building it. You need to use things like double glazing and lots of insulation.
