Anthony Ward – carbon footprint calculations

I used the CRAGS ‘calculate your carbon emissions’ sheet (XLS) as my baseline for all these figures with the exception of the green tariff where I took Amy’s suggestion that green tariffs might also be given a conversion factor albeit one much lower than conventional electricity.

Gas Heating 700 (notional average estimate)@ 2.2 = 1540 Coal 0

Oil 0

Electricity 655 (green) @ 0,15 = 93.3

Car 2420 miles @ 0.19 = 459.8

Public Transport 1570 miles @ 0.11 = 172.7

Plane 0

Total = 2.266 tons
