Tackling climate change will require world leaders to take action at the global level. But as individuals we also contribute to warming emissions. Here are some things you can do to reduce your personal impact.

1. Insulate your home

From installing a heat pump to turning down the heating, there are many changes to the home that can help the planet. "Switching from a gas or oil heating system to an electric heat pump makes a big difference," says Dr. Neil Jennings, an academic from Imperial College London. “Turning off lights and appliances every day when not in use can help us save money while reducing our impact on climate change.” (Chabarhub)
