Ways to reduce your greenhouse gas emissions - GHG Energy Calc ...

DO YOU WANT MORE SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE OF THE
GREENHOUSE EFFECT AND GLOBAL WARMING?
This graph shows northern hemisphere temperatures over the past 1000 years as based on climate proxies (dark blue) and thermometer
based recording (light blue). CO2 concentrations (red) are those recorded in the Law Dome ice core and at the Mauna Loa
monitoring station in Hawaii.

To audit your emissions use this calculator on www.carbonneutral.com.au ; click calculate, download comprehensive calculator. An audit for an
average 3 person Australian household is shown below.
Note: GHG-Energy Calc only estimates emissions from direct energy use (electricity, fuels and travel), and embodied energy of food, goods and housing.
Domestic emissions from these sources average about 13 tonnes per head. If services and public infrastructure are included, domestic emissions
would average nearly 16 tonnes per head (from ABS, 2000).
