Carbon Footprint

Carbon Footprint

What exactly is Carbon Footprint?

Carbon Footprint is the total amount of carbon dioxide or other Green House Gas emissions emitted. We can measure our emissions with Co2 Calculators or a Nations carbon footprint by undertaking a Green House Gas (GHG) emissions assessment.

 

Once the actual size of a carbon footprint is measured a business, home owner or Nation/Country can put together a strategy to reduce it. 

 

We all create emissions in multiple ways and Solar Power is a great way to offset your Carbon Footprint, known as Carbon Offsetting.

 

Everyday we are creating emissions or (GHG) by:

  • Driving a Car or motorised vehicle
  • Using electricity in the home
  • Flying

The average UK home creates 10 Tonnes of Co2 Per Year. In the U.S.A it is approximately 22 Tonnes per household.

 

So, what about the ways we can reduce our Carbon Footprint?
