Task proposal for topic 1 General topic about environmental issues/climate changes. Calculate your own carbon dioxide emissions at http://energyworksus.com/carbon-calculator.html ENERGY WORKS – electronic calculator for calculation of own CO2 emissions Present in a diagramme the differences in emissions between the pupils at each school for each of the following. Car use: kilometers/year + tons CO2 per year Elictricity usage: KW/year + tons CO2 per year Gas usage: tons CO2 per year Oil heating: tons CO2 per year Air travel: kilometers/year + tons CO2 per year Train travel: kilometers/year + tons CO2 per year Present average results (for task 2) for each school/country. Here we should include results for ”general food and waste” and ”meat consumption”. Present the average number of trees each pupil ”consumes” per year. SETTING THE TASK „CARBON FOOTPRINT“
What is carbon footprint ? • carbon footprint is volume of gases • it influences the Earth´s climate • it is caused by a man • it is mostly carbon dioxide • the are also: carbon, • methaneand nitrous oxid
COMPARISON • anaveragecarbonfootprintof Slovak peopleis 6,70 tons, • anaverageofindustrialcountriesisabout • 11 tons, • worldaverageforcarbonfootprintis • about4 tons, • worldfightsfor 2 tons.
Every student consumes 3 trees per month RESULTS - TREES
HOW TO REDUCE CARBON FOOTPRINT? • We can reduce carbon footprint: • minimum car driving, • don´t buy drinks in plastic bottles, • buy saving light bulbs, • ride a bike, • recycle, • washing at lower temperature, • don´t buy one off packings, • don´t eat a lot of meal , • prefer having shower to having a bath...
