Carbon Footprint

Each of our everyday actions consumes energy and produces carbon dioxide emissions such as taking holiday flights, driving our cars, putting items into landfills and heating and cooling our homes. Carbon offsets can be used to compensate for the emissions produced by funding an equivalent carbon dioxide saving somewhere else.

Visit www.carbonfootprint.com/calculator.aspx to calculate your footprint. You can track your future carbon use and work to reduce it by making changes in your everyday life and by using less energy. Recycling is one of the most important acts to follow in our daily lives because it can reduce the amount of waste in our landfills, sustain our natual resources and provide better air and water quality.
