Carbon Calculator –
Estimate your Residential Carbon Footprint

Are you curious about your Carbon Foot Print or what this term even means?  Would you like to calculate the impact your home has on the environment using natural gas for heating, hot water, cooking, and clothes drying versus the impact for  electric appliances in the home.  The Energy Solutions Center in conjunction with ICF International developed just such a tool that calculates the amount of Carbon Dioxide being produced from your home from these 4 primary appliances.  By answering just a handful of questions about your family size, home size and existing appliances, the calculator tool will derive your carbon impact on the environment.
