Beef has per kilo consumed the highest carbon emissions. It also has a large water consumption.
Which is worst for the environment?
Cheese / Chicken / Beef / Tofu |
c. When the gases in our atmosphere trap heat and block it from escaping our planet
What is the Greenhouse effect?
a. When you build a greenhouse b. When you paint your house green to become an environmentalist c. When the gases in our atmosphere trap heat and block it from escaping our planet |
True. Warming temperatures can impact the gender of hatchlings. Sea turtle gender is determined by the temperatures during fertilization. Warming trends could skew the balance of sea turtle offspring and future populations.
Climate change affects the gender of sea turtles.

The EPA estimates you save about 15% on fuel by driving 88 km/hr rather than 65 km/hr. Properly inflated tires and a well-tuned engine also improve fuel economy
During a long trip, you conserve more fuel by driving fast and getting to your destination sooner, than you do by going the speed limit.
True / False |
True. Some of this wasted food spoils in transit, while consumers throw some of this food out. Globally, if food waste could be represented as its own country, it would be the third largest greenhouse gas emitter, behind China and the US
More than a third of food produced globally never makes it to the table.

Only about 10% of global energy comes from renewables. The remaining 92% comes from non renewable sources like oil, coal, and natural gas
Approximately how much global electricity output is produced from renewable sources? (in percent)

b. Keep global temperature rise well below 2℃ pre-industrial levels and to pursue a path to limit warming to 1.5℃
What was Paris Agreement 2015 about?
a. Protect biodiversity and end deforestation b. Keep global temperature rise well below 2℃ pre-industrial levels c. Limit sea level rise to 3 feet above current levels d. Pursue a goal of 100% clean, renewable energy |
According to North Carolina State University, one large tree is able to supply a day’s supply of oxygen for four people. Trees are also able to absorb up to 48 pounds of carbon dioxide a year.
How many trees does it take to provide a day’s supply of oxygen for 4 people?

Carbon offsets use funds to pay for emissions that are reduced elsewhere. Example (a gas fired power plant buys “credits” from a solar plant or wind farm elsewhere. Carbon removals are strategies to remove GHG emissions (converted in CO2e) from the atmosphere and store it through various means, such as nature-based solutions - soils, forestry, underground reservoirs and rock formations or the ocean
What is carbon offset?
a. Completely remove the emitted CO2 from the atmosphere b. Purchased credits from other entities that have no or low emissions |
Waste collection service, event waste mgmt., in-store recycling, waste credit, peralatan kompos, Black Soldier Fly, community development & training
Mention at least 4 Waste4Change product/services?

Taking hundreds of years to break up, plastic is not going anywhere soon. While some of it does make it to landfills and recycling centers, a majority of it ends up in the ocean through deliberate dumping of garbage into waterways, inefficient waste infrastructure, and simple littering. Once in the water, the plastic waste is gathered up by one of the five major subtropical gyres into enormous stretches of “plastic soup.”
Where does the majority of plastic waste end up?
Oceans / Landfill / Recycled / Burned for energy |
The electricity and heat production sector emits the largest percentage of global greenhouse gas emissions at 25%. The agriculture, forestry and other land use sector is a close second at 24%.
Globally, which of the following economic sectors emits the largest percentage of greenhouse gas emissions?
Transportation / Building / Industry / Electricity & Heat Production |
Northern white rhinoceros / Badak Putih Utara
What species recently went extinct?

Carbon-neutral and net-zero are two similar terms.
- When carbon-neutral refers to balancing out the total amount of carbon emissions, - Net zero carbon means no carbon was emitted from the get-go, so no carbon needs to be captured or offset - Net zero emissions refer to the overall balance of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) produced and GHG emissions taken out of the atmosphere source: https://plana.earth/academy/what-is-difference-between-carbon-neutral-net-zero-climate-positive/
Which one is the definition of net-zero emission?
a. any carbon released into the atmosphere from a company’s activities is balanced by an equivalent amount being removed. b. balancing the whole amount of greenhouse gas (GHG) released and the amount removed from the atmosphere c. creating an environmental benefit by removing additional carbon dioxide from the atmosphere |
