Thanks. As mentioned on the thread cited, one of the great problems with these carbon footprint calculations is
how many people are responsible for the carbon use. One cannot presume a nuclear family, a "standard" four member family or even a family at all. The problem is that (
e.g.) "my" useage is really that of the household (on most of the items logged) and therefore should be divided by 2, 3, 4 depending who is at home. Similarly, I suspect that the
Gnauriad will have a question/pledge about transport - many of the 'footprint' calculations fall down here because of shared usage ... I've noted that I don't drive any vehicle (not even a bike nowadays)
but I do take a lift in the car when it's offered .... so that ups my carbon usage
but, of course, it reduces the usage of the driver since they will be then be a half-person per kilometre of petrol usage!
None of this is strictly relevent to the
Graunidan scheme but may have an effect on how it is received by the reader ....
