A carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gases (including carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide) that are emitted directly or indirectly by human activities. It's measured in metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) per year. Our calculator converts all emissions to CO₂e using standard conversion factors.
Global average is approximately 4-5 tons CO₂e per person annually, but varies significantly by country: USA (~16 tons), European Union (~7 tons), India (~2 tons). The Paris Agreement target requires reducing to 2 tons per person by 2050 to limit global warming to 1.5°C.
Typically: Transportation (especially air travel and car use), Home energy (heating, cooling, electricity), Food (meat and dairy consumption), and Shopping (new goods production). For most people in developed countries, transportation and home energy are the largest contributors.
Most effective actions: Reduce air travel, switch to renewable energy, improve home insulation, use public transportation or electric vehicles, reduce meat consumption, minimize food waste, and buy fewer new goods. Small consistent changes can reduce emissions by 30-50% without drastic lifestyle changes.
