Install solar panels or choose a green energy provider to reduce electricity emissions by up to 100%.
Up to 100% reductionSwitching from a petrol car to public transport can cut your transport emissions by 80%.
Up to 80% reductionOne international flight can equal half your annual carbon budget. Consider video calls instead.
1-3 tonnes reductionLED bulbs, efficient appliances, and proper insulation can significantly reduce energy use.
20-40% reductionCarbon footprint is calculated by multiplying activity data (like electricity consumption or kilometers driven) by emission factors specific to each activity. We use India-specific emission factors from government and IPCC sources.
Scope 1 covers direct emissions from owned sources (like fuel combustion). Scope 2 covers indirect emissions from purchased energy (electricity). Scope 3 covers all other indirect emissions in the value chain. This calculator covers personal Scope 1 and 2.
The global average is about 4.7 tonnes CO2e per person per year. India's average is 1.9 tonnes. To limit warming to 1.5°C, we need to reach about 2 tonnes per person by 2050.
Key actions include: switching to renewable energy, using public transport or EVs, reducing air travel, improving home insulation, eating less meat, and buying local products.
