Resurgence magazine has created a 'Quick Carbon Calculator' that allows you to calculate annual CO2 emissions on the spot, without referring to your energy bills. Following on from their award-winning Carbon Calculator designed by low-carbon pioneer, Mukti Mitchell, this new Quick Carbon Calculator is even simpler and easier to use.
Resurgence has been at the forefront of the environment movement for over 40 years presenting a positive perspective on the latest environmental trends that has inspired millions of individuals around the world. The new online calculator isn’t designed to make people feel guilty about their lifestyle. On the contrary, Satish Kumar, who has edited Resurgence for the past 35 years explained why such a tool can simplify your life:
“This calculator will help you reduce your carbon emissions and increase your quality of life.
Reduction of carbon emissions need not be a burden – it can be a source of pleasure. You have to be the change you want to see in the world. When you change the world will begin to change.”
National average emissions are currently 10 tonnes per person per year. In 2004 the UK government pledged to cut emissions by 20% by 2012 to around 8 tonnes per capita. They have now pledged 80% reductions by 2050 to around 2 tonnes per capita, which is the sustainable CO2 quota per capita globally.
“The bold targets set by government show that we’ve all got to look at our lifestyles and make some changes,” explained Mukti, who’s original calculator has been widely cited as the most accurate on the web, “The new Resurgence Quick Carbon Calculator can help pinpoint the areas where it might be easiest for you to make those changes.”
The calculator has already received excellent reviews from both environmental professionals and the general public. Peter Yeo, admitted his surprise at his own footprint:
“The calculator showed I currently produce between 6-7 tonnes of CO2 a year which was surprising as I live a relatively low-impact lifestyle.
Nevertheless, it also revealed my biggest carbon culprit to be the oil burner used for heating my property. This has prompted me to look into alternative sources of heating that will save me money in the winter and whilst reducing CO2 emissions at the same time ”
The Resurgence online Quick Carbon Calculator provides accurate information about carbon footprints – enabling individuals to make informed choices. To reduce your carbon footprint, Resurgence suggests starting at your current level and reducing it by 4% per year. This allows you to play your part in reaching the national targets in a surprisingly easy way!
