March 28th, 2008 - Low Impact Living Calculator

Megan at That’s Swell! pointed me to the Low Impact Living Calculator. It’s like the carbon footprints I’ve seen elsewhere, but focuses on your housing. And at the end, it gives you a list of possible projects. If you’ve already done them, you check them off and your footprint updates.

Megan has at 40 rating, living in an apartment, and I’m delighted to say I have a 51! (Average is 100). Some of the things that help: composting, having just one car, the ancient house, and our newer appliances (since we bought them all in the last 7 years).
