Personal Impact.

Click Here for a Carbon Calculator quiz . There are three sections on this webpage. Work your way through all three:

Section 1: Estimate your current total household emissions.
Section 2: Explore actions you can take to reduce your greenhouse gas emissions, energy use, and waste disposal costs.
Section 3: See how much you can save (in dollars and emissions) by taking the actions you chose in Section 2.

Some of these things don’t apply to students living in dorms. Call Mom, call Uncle Eddie, call your girlfriend/boyfriend. Not currently staying in a house does NOT exempt you from this exercise.

Full Credit for this assignment requires a one page write-up (250 words) on what you found out.

We encourage you to handwrite your assignments on the back of used paper, and those who do so will receive one Bonus point. Don’t double space stuff in this class.
