Based on the excel file that we had to fill up for us to compute or calculate the energy consumed by our house/home/family. It depends on all the things we consume, the factors of how huge our house is and more.
To compute for your own footprint, download the file from the link below:

If you have a big family, your household will probably consume a lot. just like mine. But in order to lessen the consumption, we must observe and just consume what is needed. We should lessen eating at fast food chains , we should also be observant of what food we take. We should avoid consumption of too much fossil fuels. We should also lessen our wastes, especially on food left overs, having pets will help reduce the waste, since they can eat the left overs. It is not just the food that we should be observant of, there are also those electrical consumption we have. we should use appliances that doesn't consume a lot of energy, also if the appliances are not in use, we have to unplug them to save energy consumption.
The lesser computed household footprint, the better. It just means that we have less consumption which is a good thing.
