ABSTRACT

It is possible to reduce your emissions substantially by making a number of focused changes. Not all of these can be done immediately. Investments in the fabric of the house or to personal transport need to be planned years ahead. You start from where you start, and the important thing is to set a reasonable and realistic goal. The website that accompanies this book has a detailed carbon calculator to help you audit your life. It will give you a report on your GHG emissions and help you test how much emissions you can save by modifying your purchases and behaviours.
