Reduce Your Carbon Footprint
A carbon footprint is a measure of the impact our actions have on the environment - and in particular CLIMATE CHANGE. It relates to the amount of greenhouse gases produced in our day-to-day lives through burning fossil fuels for electricity, heating and transportation etc. A carbon footprint is made up of two parts, the primary footprint (dark) and the secondary footprint (light).

1. The primary footprint is the amount of our direct emissions of CO2 from the burning of fossil fuels
    - including domestic energy consumption and transportation. We have direct control of these.
2. The secondary footprint is the amount of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of
    products we use - those connected to their manufacture and eventual breakdown. To put it very
    simply - the more we buy the more emissions will be caused on our behalf.
