Carbon Footprint
My score is 3.278 tonnes of CO2 per year. Not too shabby I must say.
with 67% Food is the bulk of my carbon emissions, but there isn’t too much I can do about that eh? I should get some credit for eating the cows that produce methane! The site advises me to go vegetarian but I don’t think I would last very long.
at 22.7% Shelter is the next part, again not much I can do about that. I can reduce by turning my heater down and showering quicker, but with the stress of university courses (not comm 101 of course) my showers has become a place for relaxation and comfort.
Commute and Long Distance Travel is completes the pie chart. By not using a car, I am being fairly eco- friendly with my traveling ways. I don’t plan to work 25km to go visit friends in Burnaby nor am I fit enough to bike that length.
Overall, I think (and the website agrees with me) I am limiting my CO2 emissions. SCORE!
