Welcome to Reducecarbonorg!

Hi, I'm Iana! Welcome to my first blog post!

Here at Reducecarbonorg we have one main goal, to explore ways in which we can all make a positive difference in the world. Through realizing that we all have the power within ourselves to really change the world, we can learn how to implement those changes into our daily lives.

First, let me share a little about myself. My name is Iana, and I'm a part time college student, social/environmental activist, and more importantly than anything, just a regular girl from a small town with big dreams. I decided it would be both fun and impactful to run a blog where I could share tips and tricks on how the everyday person can reduce their carbon footprint.

But what is your carbon footprint exactly? According to https://scied.ucar.edu/learning-zone/clim, your personal carbon footprint is the total carbon dioxide released due to individual everyday activities.

I used to think that I, myself alone, could never do enough to really make any kind of a difference in the grand scheme of things. That thought dissipated upon the realization that if a thousand other people thought the exact same thing, together even through small changes we could all make a big difference.

YOU have the power to change the world, but the question is, will you?

Thank you so much for reading if you're interested in learning more about me, Reducecarbonorg, or have any general questions you can find links to my personal website and Twitter below.
