Carbon footing is one of the components.
<br />
<br />
<div class="mbs _5pbx userContent" data-ft="{"tn":"K"}" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 5px;">
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 19.1875px;">A carbon footprint is the measure of the environmental impact of a particular individual or organization's lifestyle or operation, measured in units of carbon dioxide.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 19.1875px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 19.1875px;">A <a href="http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/carbon-footprint">carbon footprint</a> is composed of two parts, a primary and secondary footprint. </span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 20px;">
<ul>
<li><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #333333; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 19.1875px;">The primary footprint is the sum of the direct carbon dioxide emissions of burning of fossil fuels, like domestic energy consumption by furnaces and waters heaters, and transportation, like automobiles and airplane travel. </span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #333333; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 19.1875px;">The secondary footprint is the sum of indirect emissions associated with the manufacture and breakdown of all products, services and food an individual or business consumes.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
So, it seams that everything we do, do have an environmental impact, our carbon footing. <span style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 20px;">But </span>What WE CAN DO is to CHANGE those areas of our lifestyle </div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 19.1875px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 19.1875px;"></span><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 19.1875px;">
<li><b>minimise </b>(reduce) as much as we can those <span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">that have an extreme footing (like driving), </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #333333;">be </span><b style="color: #333333;">mindful </b><span style="color: #333333;">(think, assess, learn) before action</span></li>

<li><span style="color: #333333;">but</span><b style="color: #333333;"> dont preach</b><span style="color: #333333;">, bore others or get people on the defensive about their own footing. Compliance needs patience. People wont wanna change unless they will benefit from it. Selfish, but that's self-preservation (ego/face) kicking in. Most of us are hard-wire through our genes, others are learned from parents, environment, society - esp people we observe when young. </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #333333;">grow a<b> thicker skin</b>. Never mind people telling you - that's not the way we do things here and snigger at your efforts. Change is never easy. Lead by example. No need to justify your actions. START A QUIET REVOLUTION.</span></li>

What do u do when your light bulb life-span expires? Throw into the rubbish bin - NO!<br />
<br />
Wrap it in paper and bring to collection boxes like the one in Kelana Jaya LRT station (next to Ticket Counter and insert into the cardboard box provided.<br />
<br />
BUT make sure u do not break them in transit as it will release poisonous mercury! Another reason why it should not be thrown into the rubbish heap...<br />

<br />

<br />
How? Levi's says -<br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;">Levi's Waste<Less jeans are the result of our latest design innovation. Each piece features a minimum of 20% post consumer recycled content, from an average of 8 plastic bottles</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;"><br /></span>
<img alt="Wasteless-Fallen-down.jpg" src="http://levi.com.my/my/Wasteless-Fallen-down.jpg" /><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;">
By repurposing waste--in this case, plastic bottles and trays--and recycling them into new fabrics, we're doing our small part to utilize existing materials in place of virgin cotton, which is dependent on numerous natural resources. </span>
