CO2 from car

One good calculator of your personal CO₂ is http://www.reversetheeffect.com.au/ but I have used many different ones to get a good idea of my personal CO₂ output.

Use the Green car guide: http://www.greenvehicleguide.gov.au/ to figure out your vehicle and transports output.

The green car guide calculate about 3.9  tons of CO₂ annually for the both of us. I then used 1degree: http://www.1degree.com.au/ to calculate other CO2 output Household 2.18 tonnes of CO₂ and Flights 1.13 tonnes of CO₂

So that gives 4 + 2.2 + 1.2 for a grand total of 7.4 tonnes of CO₂ for the both of us or about 3.7 tonnes each. Given that each person should be aiming for under 3 tonnes of CO₂ per year Min and I are about 1.4 (0.7 each) tonnes away from our goal output.

I'll try and write a piece soon about how to reduce our output. In the meantime check out the one degree website for your own calculations along with great ways you can reduce your personal CO₂ output.
