I live in Milton Keynes. I used to live in York for 4 years. To be frank, York is lovely. I like to go for shopping, walking and sometimes just lazying at home. As I came from Malaysia, I love Malaysian foods. 🙂

Carbon footprint is how much carbon goes into the air because of something done by people (not by nature).
During planting cereals, fertiliser and manure (from animals dung) are applied to give nutrients to the plants. From the fertiliser and manure application, the nitrogen gas will emit to the air. Nitrogen gas is one of the components in the greenhouse gases. So, I need to reduce the amount of these gases emitted to the air.
If the emission of carbon is high, it makes the earth temperature increased, and warmer.

I normally work until 5 pm and then, out for walking, for exercise as I don’t want to stuck at home the whole day. I also do my groceries shopping after walking. Sometimes, I can play with my neighbour cats, because I can’t have a pet cat in my house. Then, come home, cook my dinner, eat my dinner, and rest until fall asleep. That’s repeated every weekday.
