As countries strive to combat climate change and reduce environmental impact, they look for innovative ways to minimize their carbon footprint—planting more trees, opting for renewable resources, waste reduction, and many more.
In California, many car owners heavily rely on choosing fuel-efficient vehicles, carpooling, and reducing unnecessary idling of cars as methods of reducing their carbon footprint. Aside from that is the installation of window tints in Fullerton, CA, which offers numerous benefits beyond enhancing privacy and reducing glare.
What is Carbon Footprint?
The earth’s atmosphere tirelessly works to keep earth’s overall temperature fairly steady, especially between day and night. But because of people’s daily activities—driving a car, turning on the AC system, etc.—more carbon dioxide and other carbon compounds are released into the air. These human-caused greenhouse gases cause the atmosphere to trap more heat, resulting in the rising surface temperature of the earth over time.
Here are other ways people contribute to increasing the already hot temperatures worldwide:
- Use of low energy-efficient appliances
- Food waste
- Manufacturing
- Increased transportation
- Burning fossil fuels
For this reason, a worldwide call to solve the rising temperatures made the United Nations act and created the Paris Agreement in 2015.
All 196 countries joined the agreement during the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change or UNFCCC. These countries agreed to work on limiting the rise of worldwide temperatures to 2 degrees and, if possible, to 1.5 degrees Celsius by 2023 and a ‘net zero’ by 2050 to avoid the irreversible effects of climate change.
