Carbon Footprints – What size are you?

Carbon footprints are a measurement as to ones amount of carbon emissions – i.e. pollution. We are constantly bombarded with advice telling us to fly less, take public transport and even limit the amount of times we boil the kettle or flush the toilet.
A carbon footprint is an actual size of how much pollution each person on the planet makes – however this information can be misleading, some people fly more than 1 time a week others 1 time a year. Instead of trying to reduce how many times people fly or drive their car, we should be looking at more ‘green’ ways to drive, for example Hybrid cars.
