This blog is dedicated to presenting the carbon footprints and personal reports from the eight members of Glastonbury’s first CRAG (Carbon Reduction Action Group). Click to see their carbon footprints, read on to see our more personal reports on how we’re doing…
Anthony Ward
Amy Lawson
Jon Cousins
Lokabandhu
Marke Pawson
Rachel Clyne
Trisha O’Carroll
Patrick Whitefield
and Adrian Hopper
Our aim is to provide a very practical and personal and public demonstration that individuals really can reduce their carbon emissions and can learn and have fun in the process.
All the CRAGs members have pledged to calculate their emissions from the past year, monitor them over the coming year, and take steps to reduce them by at least 5%. In the process we expect to learn a lot about how to do it, and how it feels when trying to do it…
Some of our results and adventures will be posted here as and when we’re able.
Thanks for reading this. Comments and suggestions welcome – and do come back to find out how we’re getting on!

Hi there,
I’m an Msc student wring a dissertation which is looking to improve the accuracy of carbon calculators. As such tools are becoming increasingly used by members of the public who wish to understand what effect they are having on the environment, it is essential that they be as accurate as possible. However I’m having real problems getting people with meter readings for the last year to fill out my survey. Would any of you help me out and follow the link I have provided or let people you know with meter readings of the link?
Regards
Simon
