Carbon footprint

Here you can calculate your carbon footprint. http://www.carbonfootprint.com/

pretty cool.. i entered in my data for last year & it returned this:

Your Carbon Footprint:
House 1.58 tonnes of CO2
Flights 1.50 tonnes of CO2
Car 4.58 tonnes of CO2
Motorbike 0.98 tonnes of CO2
Bus & Rail 0.17 tonnes of CO2
Secondary 3.96 tonnes of CO2
Total = 12.76 tonnes of CO2


then it had a nice little foot picture.. cute


of course, to offset this, i would have to come up with some money to the site.. I guess you can buy your way out of polluting..

It didn't have any wood stove or wood burning parts for house heating.. i suppose i could have estimated with the pellet option.

I also think the wr's would be closer to the smaller cc bikes.. they have 125cc 2t's putting out less than our 250's.

It's mildly interesting & entertaining.. i consider myself ecologically considerate, but i'm not on the level of the extreme greenies who can buy off their excess carbon output.. or at least profit from a green guilt web site. :)

Thank God some of us have one. The whole planet would be screwed without CO2...

I'm getting really tired of this "carbon credit" BS. It's all left wing money / power transfer propaganda.

I'm all for reducing emissions / pollution but IMO, climate change is 90% natural and we should be spending
money preparing for climate extremes rather than trying to change something we probably can't do anything about.

Sorry, rant over.

I agree:
It is B.S.
Just a classic line of bull shirt.
That's why I think it's hillarious and annoying at the same time. :)

7.94 tonnes of CO2

Do I get anything for this??

I think it's all BS tooo just a way for someone to put more $$$ in his/her pocket...
