Carbon Foot Print By: Jason Palmer

What is Carbon Foot Print Carbon Foot Print is The total amount of greenhouse gases produced to directly and indirectly support human activities, usually expressed in equivalent tons of carbon dioxide (CO2).

Facts About Carbon Foot Print The seven sources of CO² from fossil fuel combustion are (with percentage contributions for : Solid fuels (e.g. coal): 35% Liquid fuels (e.g. petrol): 36% Gaseous fuels (e.g. natural gas): 20% Flaring gas industrially and at wells: <1% Cement production: 3% Non-fuel hydrocarbons: <1% The "international bunkers" of shipping and air transport not included in national inventories: 4%

Ways To Prevent Buy organic and local. Pay attention to packaging. Ditch bottled water. Energy-proof your home. Go native. Window shop. Take a direct flight. Switch water heaters to vacation mode. Unplug it! Keep your car. Chuck your microwave. Use cold water. Have the family over. Make time for errands. The Three Rs: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
