- Try to be Carbon neutral, work towards a local economy base for the future, use resources sustainably, minimise pollution (local and international), consider global context to what we do (i.e. international travel + global warming predictions). Consider “Embodied energy” (i.e. make life cycle analysis of what you are doing e.g. transportation/quarrying/processing of workers or tourists).
