REDUCING YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT


What is a carbon footprint? A carbon footprint is a measure of the impact our activities have on the environment, and in particular climate change. It relates to the amount of greenhouse gases produced in our day-to-day lives through burning fossil fuels for electricity, heating and transportation etc. The carbon footprint is a measurement of all greenhouse gases we individually produce and has units of tonnes (or kg) of carbon dioxide equivalent.

How can I reduce my carbon footprint? Here's a list of simple things you can do immediately:

~Turn it off when not in use (lights, television, DVD player, Hi Fi, computer etc)
~Turn down the central heating slightly (try just 1 to 2 degrees F). Just 1 degree will help reduce your 
  heating bill by about 8%.
~Turn down the water heating setting (just 2 degrees will improve savings)
~Check the central heating timer setting
~Fill your dish washer and washing machine with a full load - this will save you water, electricity, and washing powder
~Fill the kettle with only as much water as you need
~Do your weekly shopping in a single trip
~Hang out the washing to dry rather than tumble drying it
~Car share to work, or for the kids school run
~Use the bus or a train rather than your car
~For short journeys either walk or cycle
~Try to reduce the number of flights you take
~See if your employer will allow you to work from home one day a week
~Next time you replace your car - check out diesel engines. With one of these you can even make your  
  own Biodiesel fuel.
~When staying in a hotel - turn the lights and air-conditioning off when you leave your hotel room, and ask for your room towels to be washed every other day, rather than every day
