Ep. 228: Carbon Footprint Assessment

sustainabiliME

Today Jason and Kelly will be evaluating their carbon footprint now that they have moved to a new house in a new town. According to the Nature Conservancy, "The average carbon footprint for a person in the United States is 16 tons, one of the highest rates in the world. Globally, the average carbon footprint is closer to 4 tons. To have the best chance of avoiding a 2℃ rise in global temperatures, the average global carbon footprint per year needs to drop to under 2 tons by 2050." In order to make progress, you first need to measure where you are at, so that's exactly what Kelly and Jason are about to do. 

This is part of a decarbonization series where Kelly and Jason will evaluate the various ways individuals can reduce their carbon emissions in their own home. Topics that will be covered include heat pumps, induction stove tops, solar, and more!
