A note on these comparisons
Illustrative estimates, not a measurement of your activities. Assumptions: a petrol car emits 171 g CO₂ per km; one smartphone charge accounts for 8 g CO₂; boiling one kettle of water takes about 0.1 kWh of electricity, which accounts for roughly 40 g CO₂ per boil. Actual emissions vary by vehicle, device and local electricity mix. The supplied footprint is displayed as provided, without independent verification. The dot scale adjusts to your footprint; the final illuminated dot may represent less than a full dot.
Understanding is the first step.
Making carbon visible helps us make more conscious choices.
