4.1 CARBON CALCULATOR
The first step to adopt a Low-Carbon Lifestyle is to find out what is your carbon footprint to make informed decisions on how to reduce your carbon emissions. Your carbon footprint is what's left behind when you use energy at home, in your car, or on a flight. In just 10 minutes you can enjoy a workout to calculate your carbon footprint, discover where your CO2 comes from and learn easy ways to shrink that carbon footprint. The workout is split into three sections:
- Calculate your carbon footprint to find out how much carbon you produce at home, in the car and when you travel.
- View a variety of actions you can pledge to take to reduce the carbon you produce.
- Learn about how you can balance the carbon you produce financially.
