2. I think reduce carbon footpint is possible. I can reduce it for example by riding to school by bus. Because then my parents don’t have to drive me by car. Generaly using public transport can reduce everyone’s carbon footprint becouse than insted drive for example ten cars, ten people who are in the train or bus go in one carriage.
3. Good idea for individual people to help save the environment are for example, garbage segregation because some of glass, paper, plastic can be reuse. Even better concept is to use glass or plastic watter bottles because after use we can just wash them and use again. My third proposition is use more publick transport it can reduce our carbon footprint so help enviroment too. My last ideas are about clothing. At First buy less cloth, buy good items and use them for a years or when we really want to buy something for us buy in second hands.
4. I think good idea to increasing food demand is to everyone, who wants of course, have a little vegetable garden, then they can have partly your food. In my opinion good option will be to shops or big supermarkets when they must throw away some food, becouse for example it loses usefulness, vegetables or friuts are dented, they can give up this food for people who wants it. That will reduce food demand and some environment problems because less food will be wasted.

2. Yes, I guess? If we wouldn’t buy plastic straws or deodorants, or hypothetically speaking live in a jungle with no access to electricity then definitely.
3. Mostly by recycling. We can recycle cans or papers. Another idea is using reusable bags. I often go to grocery stores and each time I buy a new disposable bag. Now sadly, I have a lot of these. The process of decomposing them takes a long time. Buying one good reusable bag instead would be a much better thing to do. We should also try saving electricity and water because we probably use it more than we have to.
4. Recycling food waste can be a solution. We can recycle food waste by for example donating it for Animal Feed. Changing our food habits would also be a good idea.

2.Of course, it is possible to minimalize my carbon footprint. I can use a bike instead of a car or bus when I'm going to school. Also, I can eat less meat or become a vegetarian.
3.Every change has begun with one person. We should drive more efficient vehicles, eat vegetables and fruits rather than meat. Planting trees, use less plastic, reuse and recycle things will also help.
4.Right now population count 7.5 billion people. We already use more earth sources than our planet can provide. We shouldn't waste any food and grow our garden with for example vegetables.

2. I think it’s possible to reduce my carbon footprint by doing simple things that can change a lot. For example, going to school on foot or riding a bike. I can also use public transport to get to my destination places. These are small steps but with a little bit of motivation reducing my carbon footprint is possible.
3. Every idea starts with an individual. One person really can change a lot. Individuals can help the environment by using public transport, riding a bike or going somewhere on foot. To stop the fast fashion trend we can buy clothes in the thrift stores. We can also change our eating habbits for continental diet. It’s all about reducing our carbon footprint by making more ethical eating choices like eating less meat or avoiding food (especially sweets) with palm oil.
4. Increasing food demand is starting to be a huge problem, but it may have simple solutions. For example, we can grow our own vegetables or fruit. We also have to stop wasting food and throwing it away.

2.Of course, it is possible. I already ride a bike on my way to school, don't eat meat, or generally try to use less plastic every day. These are little changes but I think it already reducing my carbon footprint in some way.
3.First, of all-be more aware, some individuals don't even realize how much they pollute the environment. So in conclusion, if people start educating themselves and take this seriously they can found out that there are many possibilities to save the environment. It is something simple like segregating or reducing waste.
4.This is such a big problem that it can't be solved just like that. There are too many people and the tendency of increasing it keeps rising. I think we should start from stop wasting food, but still, it is not enough to deal with that issue.

2. In order to reduce my carbon footprint I can use more bike than car - that will be probably the biggest change with I can do. Walking to school by my feet is also good idea, because then I can improve my health and do something for environment. Reduce the amount of electricity and hot water with most of people using would be also possibility change.
3. First individual people can reduce the amount of plastic containers, which everybody dump few times on the day. In my opinion it is the main problem of modern world because despite all campaigns and posters with show how big is the problem, every day the factories produce more and more plastic thing. A big major influence on the environment has also conserving a water, because the water scarcity every year grows in many countries. Due to fewer using the electricity, individual people decrease amount of carbon dioxide with is produce in many power stations. Saving the food and decreasing the amount of things we buy save our environment and our wallets.
4. Raising public awareness will be of paramount importance about how big problem is increasing food demand all the time. The best guide will be noting quality of food, which we eat. Caring about good quality in fewer amount can replace the bigger amount in this not necessarily good.

2. I think that it’s possible to reduce my carbon footprint as for example, I can go to school on foot instead of going by car. I can also reduce my usage of plastic.
3. I think that everyone can help in a different way, for example, not everybody is able to stop using cars due to their work, so they could help by recycling. Individuals could also buy less, but better, clothing so that it could last them for years. They can switch to glass, metal, wooden, or cardboard objects instead of buying plastic ones.
4. There are a lot of people living on our planet right now and the number keeps increasing, so it’s natural that the problem would’ve eventually arisen. The solution could be to grow your own garden that would consist of fruits, vegetables, or herbs. However, plants take time to grow and not everyone has space for a garden, especially if they live in a flat and it might be a problem to grow vegetables for example, on a balcony.

2. Yes, I mainly try to choose a bike if the weather conditions allow it. Also on my initiative, my parents put a filter on the chimney to reduce the emission of harmful compounds.
I also limit the consumption of water and electricity in my home.I am of the opinion that even small habits can bring great results
3. Most of the methods that I know and use are listed in the second task. Using cars or other battery-powered communication devices is also great.
4. I think the most effective will be change of people mindset. Show them how big is problem, and how much food go to garbage. We do it through promotional campaigns with which hundreds of food producers cooperate.

[2] It could be possible, but it wouldn’t be easy, I think. Reducing carbon footprint is really hard, because of fact, that not every person can start reducing it depending on work, eating habits and usage, but it could be possible. I try to reduce my carbon footprint by segregating rubbish and by driving by bus instead of car, which helps reduce vehicle fumes, but also I’m trying to educate myself and find other ways for upping reduce of my carbon footprint.
[3] Individuals can save the environment by upping their self-awareness about being more friendly to the environment. They can do it by changing their eating habits, for example eating less meat than usual, using public transport instead of their own car, but also educating themselves in this area.
[4] That’s very real problem, because of fact that individual living in the EU waste around 90 million tons of food. The best way, in my opinion, is planning our shopping list before going shopping, which helps to decrease buying more products than we need. Also good way is trying to impose less food on the plate than we used to do it, which helps to reduce throwing away undone meal and as a result food waste.
