What is a 'carbon footprint'?

WHAT IS A CARBON FOOTPRINT?

We bring you the answer!



A carbon footprint is a total sets of greenhouse gas emissions caused by an organization, event, product or person. However, calculating the total carbon footprint is impossible due to large amounts of data and the fact that carbon dioxide is produced using natural occurences. Greenhouse gases can be emitted through transport, land clearance, and the production and consumption of food, fuels, manufactured goods, materials, wood, roads, buildings, and services.
