There are various ways to measure our impact on the earth from an environmental stand print. One the following report, I will define what is a carbon foot print is, show how carbon footprint is measured in my country and the world, show how (rank in a comparisons to others finally I will make some suggestion as to how we can reduce our carbon footprint.
Let’s now look at how best to define. A carbon footprint is measurement of our effect human on the environment in terms of how we influence global warming. To clarify,” The total amount of greenhouse gases produced to directly and indirectly support human activities, usually expressed in equivalent tons of carbon dioxide (CO2).Your carbon footprint is the sum of all emissions of CO2 (carbon dioxide), which were induced by your activities in a given time frame. Usually a carbon footprint is calculated for the time period of a year.”(What-is-a-carbon-footprint-definition 2).
It is calculated by looking at all the different ways which you use energy from means of transport to food consumption, to home appliances etc. to clarify “Carbon footprint calculation generally include energy used to power our home and transport, as well the consumption we use on regular (and irregular) basis, mang of the (individual carbon foot print for your home, travel, food etc.)” (Dunn3)
Turn our attention to how my carbon footprint ranking compares vis-à-vis my classmates. I registered the highest among a total of 4.57. My classmate Abdulla Salem recorded a reading of 2.725 Make him the second highest, Sultan coming in third place with a reading of 2.205. Finally with score of 1.475 is Jassim. My country doesn’t take this case serious which has a bad reputation. Mohammad al Jawdar, the director of strategy management at the EAD, said Abu Dhabi was unable to provide accurate statistics on environmental matters at present and this was one of the reasons for the country’s poor international reputation.”(Todorova 1)
Last, I will come out of some ways to minimize co2 footprint. First point to take into consideration is aware to save energy. For instant, switch off water heater don’t leave all the day to be because it will take just 20 minutes to heat the water. Second point to conceder is cool to be little warmer. For example when you adjust your AC to the temperature you need then turn it back up just 2-3 degrees. It will not make any difference on your room temperature but it will make big difference on your consumptions. Don’t forget to switch it off before leaving your home. Third point to be aware is to be bright save your money. For instant using energy saving light bulbs it’s more efficient and last 10 times longer than the traditional one.
In brief, this report helped me to primarily become more aware of my impact on the environment and take into consideration ways that I can also benefit the environment by becoming a responsible.

An Inconvenient Truth argument
The aim of viewing movies is to attract all kind of attention from an audience. Al Gore presents himself to explain the effects of global warming. Some of his reviews are positive and other is negative. In the following am going to write both negative and positive in An Inconvenient Truth warming.
Some of the audiences are against Al Gore because there were some points noted in his reviews. First point is the movie doesn’t seem to be about Global Warming but to be treated as a saint. To illustrate Al Gore talks about himself and his life more than his subject. Furthermore, point is Gore having fun about Bush and other Republicans. For instance, the reviewers believe that AL Gore’s speech was prepared with some jokes and sarcastic remarks against Bush administration and Republicans. Another point to consider is that AL Gore too very long stage to speak about Global Warming. According to Scott, the film doesn’t appear to be about Global Warming but it is regarding Al Gore’s life ( Scott 1).
Having looked at some negative points let’s turn our attention to some positive points. The first point wasn’t clear to use his documentary for any political purpose. To illustrates, he was cleaver and didn’t revolve this political transmit. Another point to be consider Al Gore’s achieved his movie goals, also he presenting the movie in a very attractive and had a lot of background. For instance, he attracts audience by presenting his film in an interesting way by adding some jokes and clips. Helen reviews, stated that Al Gore’s charts, statistic and scientists studies showed that Global Warming is not new fact (O’Hara 2). To clarify; they support their opinion by some great climate researchers who says that Al Gore got the right facts.
In conclusion it has been noticed and published “An Inconvenient Truth “has big impact to all people around the world ignoring Al Gore’s negative points. Because our world is most important to us and to our generation
