Detailed description (English): As you know, carbon emissions are increasing and harming the environment. The urbanization process in large cities is very fast. As a result, car use is increasing, the damage that cars do to the atmosphere is huge. What is a carbon footprint? Did you know that carbon footprints are a major environmental problem? To know how to reduce the carbon footprint, you need to know what a carbon footprint is. The carbon footprint expresses the amount of tons of carbon dioxide that goes directly into the environment as a result of human activities, including greenhouse gases. In short, the amount per capita of harmful effects of human activity on the environment is called a carbon footprint: for example, when driving, heating your house, cooking, shopping, watching TV, etc. You emit a certain amount of carbon dioxide into the environment. This causes carbon footprints to form. The amount of carbon footprint is usually measured once a year.
We urge you to take action and encourage people of your entourage to walk and reduce carbon emissions. Because of the Pandemic, the number of vehicles is becoming higher and people are not used to walking: particularly, they do not like to go outside their comfort zone!
Y4PT goal with this challenge is to encourage people to walk to reach a physical and mental healthier state, change their lifestyle. The international call will reduce carbon emissions each 15 days you will participate and encourage people to reduce their single transportation use.
