[Greenbuilding] Heretics, Himatics, and Hare Krishna

[sanjay jain]

11500 lbs for 2 people. Kyoto allowance 22000. Had to guess at electricity and gas usage from previous residence as our current apartment includes utilities in rent. 

Actually, this is somewhat simplistic. We don't have a car, but we do use public transport which doesn't seem to be factored in.

Includes air travel, but excludes diet, which is a far bigger factor.

I've seen better calculators.

Here is a site with a carbon footprint calculators for properties 
operated by religious congregations and also for individual households.  
Our household of 5 came in just above the Kyoto guideline for carbon 
emissions for a household of 5.
