Carbon Footprinting

Carbon footprinting is a measure of how much carbon dioxide you create both at home and through your business. Carbon dioxide is the main greenhouse gas that creates global warming and affects climate change.

By measuring your carbon footprint you can identify ways of reducing it.

There are many different carbon calculators available some are easier to use than others. Check out the following:
