About Carbon Footprint

A carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gases (including carbon dioxide and methane) that are generated by our actions. The average carbon footprint for a person in the United States is 16 tons, one of the highest rates in the world.

Why Calculate Your Carbon Footprint?

Understanding your carbon footprint is the first step toward reducing it. By identifying which areas of your life contribute most to your environmental impact, you can make informed decisions to live more sustainably.

How Can You Reduce Your Footprint?

  • Transportation: Use public transport, carpool, bike, or walk when possible
  • Energy at Home: Switch to renewable energy sources and improve home insulation
  • Diet: Reduce meat consumption and choose locally sourced foods
  • Shopping: Buy less, choose sustainable products, and repair rather than replace
  • Waste: Recycle, compost, and minimize single-use plastics

Benefits of Reducing Your Carbon Footprint

Beyond helping combat climate change, reducing your carbon footprint can also save you money through lower energy bills, improve your health through active transportation and better diet, and contribute to cleaner air and water in your community.
