Carbon Footprint
I recently visited http://www.1degree.com.au/ and worked out the house-hold's carbon footprint using their "Carbon Calculator".
Here are the results:
Your carbon footprint6.79 tonnes CO2 per year
Household 8.32%, 0.57 tonnes of CO2
Transport 91.68%, 6.23 tonnes of CO2
Flights 0%, 0 tonnes of CO2
I think because I'm in Tassie and most of our power is produced by Hydro, the calculator factors this in and thus our household output is quite low. What is surprising is the transport component, which I estimated at a total 40,000km pa with two vehicles.
