What is a Carbon Footprint?
http://w.plant-a-tree-today.org/NewQuickOffset.asp What is a Carbon Footprint? Your carbon footprint is the direct effect your actions and lifestyle have on the environment in terms of carbon dioxide emissions. Probably the biggest contributors to your footprint are your travel needs, and your electricity demands at home. However, all your actions have a direct or indirect impact, including your diet, and the clothes you wear. We know cars, buses and aeroplanes burn gasoline, public transport may use gasoline and electricity and your home uses a significant portion of your personal electricity needs that generally comes from fossil fuel burning power plants. All these actions contribute to accelerating global warming and climate change. |

Calculate your CO2 Impact
http://www.climatecrisis.net/takeaction/carboncalculator/ We all contribute to global warming every day. The carbon dioxide you produce by driving your car and leaving the lights on adds up quickly. You may be surprised by how much Co2 you are emitting each year. Calculate your personal impact and learn how you can take action to reduce or even eliminate your emissions of carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide calculator for individuals is based on two areas of energy use that make up the majority of most individuals' carbon dioxide emissions: transportation and home energy. |

Carbon Footprint Calculator
http://www.carbonfootprint.com/calculator.aspx The calculations for the primary emissions are based on a combination of metrics from the UK's Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA), the UK's Department for Transport, and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The calculations for the secondary emissions are based on estimates developed by Carbon Footprint to illustrate the impact on the environment from your day-to-day activities. Your actual secondary footprint may in reality be either lower or greater than that estimated here. The total carbon footprint of an individual is the sum of their primary and secondary emissions. The average carbon footprint per individual for each country is sourced from the EPA. |

Calculate your carbon footprint
http://www.mycarbonfootprint.eu/ Calculate your carbon footprint The governments of Europe are working together to tackle climate change and reduce the EU's carbon emissions. However, to really make a difference, we all need to think about our personal environmental impact and take steps to reduce our carbon footprint. Our Carbon Calculator provides you with a number of ideas for reducing your carbon footprint through simple, everyday changes. Most are small changes which you probably won't even notice, but if everyone in Europe were to adopt just a few good habits, the impact would be enormous. To find out how much carbon you can save, just mark the changes you would be willing to make in each of our four categories. Our calculator will then work out how many kgs of CO2 you can save each year and give you the chance to make a public pledge to reduce your personal carbon footprint. |

Personal Emissions Calculator (EPA)
http://www.epa.gov/climatechange/emissions/ind_calculator.html Personal Emissions Calculator (EPA) EPA has developed tools to help individuals (and households) reduce greenhouse gas emissions and take action. Businesses and organizations interested in educating their employees and members about what they can do at home to help protect our climate can also use these tools. Use this online calculator to obtain an estimate of your personal greenhouse gas emissions or your family’s greenhouse gas emissions. Then move on to the next section of the calculator to explore actions you and/or your family can take to lower your emissions while reducing your energy and waste disposal costs. For each action you choose to take, the calculator displays the amount of emissions you could avoid and how that amount relates to your total emissions. |
