Carbon footprint

So I was watching TV and BP ran an ad about what is your carbon footprint. I went to their site and took the test. Apparently mine is only 4 tonnes of co2 per year. The average in the US is 18 tonnes per year. Living in a teeny tiny apartment with water for heat and no car plus mandatory recycling laws significantly affects my footprint.

In other thoughts, what should I do with the Girls tomorrow night? I really should know that by now.

Mine and husband's is 21. If we drove a reasonable number of miles per year, that would put us at the US average.

I estimated up on a couple of things and ended up at 4 tonnes. I think it would've been lower did I not live in a building currently celebrating 100 years.

Ja nd I came up at being 9 tonnes but we have the two cars and electric heat...couldn't do anything about those. Thank goodness I am a recycling nazi or we would have been higher.

When we move back to the west coast and have access to public transport, it should drop.

Enjoyed the vacation pics, by the way.

Ours was over 20. It's the commute that kills us. Or rather all of us, as the case may be!
