Become a vegetarian - to produce one kilo of meat you have to use 10 kilos of crops. Think twice before you buy sth, make sure you really need it - pollution is being made and resources are being consumed in order to produce most of the things. Do people really need to change the color of their hair for example?

Yeah i really praise your words. As a civil engineering point of view i would like to bring your attention in this topic. First of all we would know the major sources that emit the co2 in the abundance. These are as follows Residential and commercial constituents around 10% Industry constituents around 14% Transportation constituents around 31% Electricity constituents around 38% Other constituents 6% We people are working on green building. That would reduce the carbon footprint surely up to some extent. And new technology has been introduced in the road construction also like "cold mix", technique and both side of road plantation are being done. That is helping in co2 reduction also. And solar call that is a good source in the electricity production field is being used in the street light. Eventually these cells are helping in the reduction of coal combustion. And very many techniques are there. In the last I would say that we cannot completely eliminate the carbon footprint but by this technique up to some extent we can overcome this environmental pollution problem.

Of course theres a way how to keep some balance :-) The point is people are too selfish to do it, they expect just profits for theirselves without any or with minimal effort. And this is not just about "industrialization- saving nature" issue. so what? Humans characters in DNA encoded.
