What’s in a Carbon Footprint?? We've touched on this in previous episodes but never fully explored. If you're wondering what it really means, you're not alone! In simple terms, a carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide and methane, that you emit from your daily activities. But how much is that really? For the average American, it’s a whopping 16 tons per year—well above the global average of 5 tons.
We’ll break down the key contributors to your footprint: from the way you heat and cool your home, to how you get around, to what you eat, and even your shopping habits. What can you do to reduce it? Can small changes in your lifestyle make a difference? And what about those pesky carbon footprint calculators—are they accurate, and how do they even work?
By the end of this episode, you’ll have a better understanding of how your daily habits contribute to climate change and how small changes can add up to a big difference!
