Climate Change: What's Your Impact?
Inevitably, in going about our daily lives – commuting, sheltering our
families, eating – each of us contributes to the greenhouse gas
emissions that are
as individuals – can do to reduce emissions. The choices we
make in our homes, our travel, the food we eat, and what we
buy and throw away can help ensure a stable climate for future
generations.
Use The Nature Conservancy's online carbon footprint calculator to
measure your – or your household's – climate impact. The calculator
will estimate how many tons of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse
gases your choices create each year.

each year. My minivan definitely doesn't help . . .
