    3.68 here.

    I don't drive and walk to work each day.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 10,912 Mod ✭✭✭✭Ponster


    0 (or almost) for me. I tried it last year and got a total of 7 each for me and the wife so we paid for trees to be planted to offset our results.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,584 ✭✭✭c - 13


    In reality 10.92

    By lying 0.55

    But then it tells me - Your Carbon Count Number is low. You could still get it down further by making some simple changes in your day to day life - This is your target number 0.44, honestly what do they suggest moving to a cave ?

    6.43 ... seems like a lot.

    I bet the real tally is a lot higher, when you take barbeques into account:rolleyes:

    /Edit - did it again ... it's the flying that racks up the points for me.

    You'll have to buy a private jet I'm afraid. Pop on down to BOI and ask for a loan (Be sure to tell them why.)

    But 75 persent is because of flights with work....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,396 ✭✭✭✭kaimera

    But thats a lot of guesstimating on esb/gas bills [flatmate hasnt asked for money in 7 months] and my number of flights per year is prolly off a little [I said 10 for short & long haul..prolly be less but not by loads]
