There are several quick and easy methods to reduce one’s carbon footprint. 
One way is to reduce the number of personal vehicles used and opt for other forms of transportation like public transit or bicycling when possible. Another method is to conserve energy at home through replacing inefficient appliances with more efficient models, turning off electronic appliances when they’re not in use, reducing water waste, and using rechargeable batteries instead of disposable ones. Finally, recycling has a massive impact on carbon emissions and pollution - try separating paper products for local recycling centers, if available.

There are several simple ways to reduce your carbon footprint quickly and effectively. One way is to switch your electricity provider to one that uses 100% renewable sources such as wind and solar energy. You can also offset any remaining emissions by investing in certified carbon reduction projects such as planting trees or funding energy-efficiency improvements in buildings. Additionally, you can decrease the amount of home energy use by switching to LED lighting, using natural light when possible; replacing old appliances with Energy Star–certified models; setting your thermostat to an appropriate temperature; hanging clothes to dry rather than using a machine; purchasing Energy Star-certified electronics, including computers and monitors; taking shorter showers; investing in insulation for windows and doors—and much more.
