Currently there are different ways to calculate our environmental impact on Earth, considering our daily habits. These cover aspects such as our food, transport, waste, energy and water use.
The ecological footprint estimates the area of \u200b\u200bland and ocean required to sustain its consumption of food, goods, services, housing and energy and assimilate waste. The ecological footprint is expressed in "global hectares" (gha) or "global acres" (ga), which are standardized units that take into account differences in biological productivity of many ecosystems that are impacted by our consumption activities. Its footprint is divided into four consumption categories: carbon (use of home energy and transportation), food, shelter, and goods and services. Her imprint is divided into four types of ecosystems and biomes: cropland, pastureland, forest land and marine fisheries.
these links for you to calculate your ecological footprint and so know what habits you must be modified to a lesser extent impact on our planet.
There is also another tool that calculates your CO2 footprint in Mexico, made by Pronatura, the National Ecology Institute ( INE) and Reforestamos Mexico:
In it you suggest how much you need to plant trees to to reduce your carbon dioxide emissions and alternatives to counteract the effect of the atmosphere.
I hope it's helpful!
