Carbon Footprint
How ‘Green’ are you?
Background
Climate change is a serious problem, affecting us all. There is strong evidence, that human emissions of greenhouse gases are changing the world’s climate. The main greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide (C02), produced when we burn fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas for energy.
What is a Carbon Footprint?
Everyone has a Carbon Footprint – It is your own personal measure of how much carbon dioxide you create and how much you are personally contributing to climate change.
More technically, a Carbon Footprint is a ‘measure of the impact human activities have on the environment, in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases produced and measured in units of Carbon Dioxide’.
Due to the issues surrounding climate change, it is now recommended for individuals and organisations, to conceptualise their personal and organisational impact in contributing to global warming.
Calculating your Carbon Footprint
As part of HEE Ltd ’s ® ongoing energy efficient campaign to reduce C02 emissions, in line with Government recommendations, we remain committed to helping individuals not only to calculate their own ‘Carbon Footprint’ but also to providing them with advice for ways to reduce this and improve on overall efficiency in the future.
Tools, in response to carbon Footprints are ‘Carbon Offsets’ –The mitigation of carbon emissions through the development of alternative products, such as Solar, Wind Energy or Reforestation
Over 40% of C02 emissions in the UK come directly from what we do as individuals - For example in our use of electricity at work, or in the home and in our use of vehicles on a daily basis.
Here at HEE Ltd ® – We can calculate your Carbon Footprint.
