1. Ecological Footprint Calculator -Link

  1. What part of your ecological footprint most surprised you?

I use more services than most people but I use less food and shelter.

   2. What parts of your footprint do you feel is possible to reduce? What parts don’t?

I think it is possible to reduce my services, but using the car less and walking and biking more.

2. Climate Challenge - Link

  1. What strategy did you take in Climate Challenge? Was it effective in reducing emissions?

I tried to make the people happy, during the end I realized that it was not effective reducing emissions.

   2. What did you think of how the strategy cards represented resources? Do you think some of the strategies/policies would have different impacts than the ones shown in the game?

I thought that the strategy cards were unique and helped me see from a different perspective. I did think of some other policies that would have different impacts as well.

   3. How did you approach international negotiations? Was it better to lead by example, or attempt to encourage other nations by investing in their green economies?

I think it would be good to be in the middle because if you lead by example you waste money but if you encourage and do nothing the other countries wouldn't want to help.
