What is your Carbon footprint?

5.09.56pm GMT Wed 16th Nov 2005

We all produce carbon dioxide (CO2) in our daily activities, this all contributes to global warming as carbon dioxide is one of the so called "greenhouse gases". The average UK household produces 10 tonnes of CO2 a year (households in the USA produce 19 tonnes). According to a test my household produces 3 tonnes, an amount I intend the reduce.

BP have created a web page that allows you to work out your own Carbon footprint, its far from perfect but gives you an idea of how much you are producing. Use the link below to find out what your footprint is and see how you can go about reducing it.
