Count Your Carbon

Spend two minutes completing a questionnaire, and CarbonCounter.org will estimate the carbon dioxide emissions resulting from your lifestyle. The counter will return an estimate based on your answers to as few as five questions about your location, home size, and transportation habits. Once your emissions have been tallied, The Climate Trust will encourage you to offset your emissions (at $10.00 per metric tonne), by funding energy-efficient renovations, forest restoration, and other activities that mitigate climate change.
