Assignment #8
Hey Mr. Bruns there is six people in my family with a total of five cars(one van, one car, and three trucks) with a complete miles per gallon average of 99 m/gal. so I'm not to proud to say that I've contributed more than my share of Carbon Emissions.
I found that our total emissions was 130,305 but if we replaced all our appliances with energy star appliances we could bring that total down to 121,107 pounds. I thought that our emissions weren't as bad as I thought because just the first total seemed very large and as I did more research it was much larger than many other peoples whole family.
If we replaced every one of our appliances it would take nine thousand pounds of carbon emmissions off our total amount. We redid our kitchen a few years ago and replaced our refrigerator with an energy star refrigerator. We also got a energy efficent stove and oven. But we do recycle paper, plastic, aluminum cans, and cardboard so we help the environment if it isn't a whole lot.

I found that the game is very challenging to forage and iit is also very hard to keep the janjaweed away from your camp. I believe that this game is very educational and will help a lot of people in the U.S. to see how hard it is for Darfurians every day just to survive. Ibelieve that if more people knew about and played this game the people would help the Darfurians.

It turns out thati know more than I thought I did becuase when time ran out I had 132 countries left to name. It is very surprising to myself because I missed some of the countries on the Asian map test that I put down. It may not be very knowledgible but to even get that far for myself is very surprising and satisfying. |
