About Me

-

Welcome, 

My name is Harini Gnanalingam and I am a high school student looking to spread awareness about climate change. Throughout my life, my family has shown me many methods of preserving the Earth and being more eco-friendly. This has inspired me to practice sustainability. Using my knowledge from my mentor/grandfather, I write articles and present many projects at my local science fair. 

We only have one world, we should be taking care of it like ourselves because it too is a living being.


Please comment your suggestions! Always looking forward to creating more content!


Enjoy!


Harini

Decreasing Your Ecological Footprint

-
There are many ways to reduce your ecological footprint. It all depends on your lifestyle and your day to day activities. Which means that everyone’s ecological footprint is different. There are many contributing parts to the ecological footprint. The carbon footprint makes the most impact. Therefore we will focus on that. The carbon footprint (CF) is the number of Greenhouse gases you emit (measured in CO2) by doing your day to day activities. To help reduce your CF, you must understand the impact of each activity. For example, buying and consuming B.C apples from the grocery store is leaving a large CF which we don't think of. Things that contribute to this example are transportation, cleaning method, processing, packaging and, storage. To reduce the CF, we need to eliminate/reduce some of these factors.  First of all, what is an Ecological footprint?  Ecological footprints measure the amount of land or sea area that you use to live. For example, if every person on this eart...

Glacial Melting Crisis

-
As we all know, the world is changing as time goes on but, have we ever asked ourselves what are some things that are changing? Animals, technology and nature are some of the things in our world that keep changing. All of these things affect humans is one way or the other like global warming.  Global warming is when more than a certain amount of GHG (greenhouse gases) are emitted into the atmosphere and when they mix together, they start to change the temperatures, weather and climates of the earth. On top of that, they also change the state of the environment too, which brings us to our topic of discussion, glacial melting. Glacial Melting 101 Glacial melting is when global warming affects the temperatures of the air to become warmer and it starts to melt the glaciers and icebergs (basically, anything involving snow that is created by mother nature). It is impossible to reverse the process of glacial melting due to the GHG gases up in the air already but we can still maintain to k...
