Sorry about the poor quality of the cell phone picture, but that was me using the carbon foot print calculator. I live in a residential dorm so I think my numbers were a bit skewed but it was informative. Some other carbon footprint calculators out there are:
www.carbonfootprint.com/calculator.aspx
www.nature.org/initiatives/climatechange/calculator/
www.whatsmycarbonfootprint.com/calculate.htm
They give different answers but focus on slightly different things and are fun to fill out.
