I slept for a while. When I woke up, I found myself in a terrible place. Everything around me was ugly and had horrible smells. I felt afraid. I kept hoping that I would be moved somewhere else. Then huge trucks came and covered us with a layer of soil.
I asked another bottle what would happen to us. He said that we would never leave this horrible crowded place, but would have to stay here for thousands of years.
“Why can’t they reuse or recycle us ” I cried.

Your carbon footprint
The total amount of carbon dioxide(CO2) you produce a year is called your carbon footprint. Besides breathing, there are two other ways you can produce CO2. First, you can do it directly, by driving a car or using a gas stove. Second, you can do it indirectly, by buying or using products that produced CO2 when they were made.
Generally, you should make your carbon footprint as small as possible. For example, you can use public transport instead of a car, or you can walk or cycle.
