Carbon footprint – Responsible ways to save the planet

The carbon calculator, launched by the Change Campaign commissioned by the Department of the Environment, provides a ready means for people to determine their carbon footprint.

Thus it provides an opportunity for people to audit their lifestyle to determine ways of playing their part in reducing carbon emissions.

So many human activities contribute to carbon emissions — from showering in the morning, using lighting at night, or using automotive transportation to work or recreation. Sources of emissions can be segregated into the broad categories of energy or non-energy-related.
