Most of us have heard about our carbon footprint and how it affects global warming. But do you really know what your carbon footprint is?

I located a calculator for you to see how much you are contributing to global warming or to see just how much those changes you are thinking about making will impact your carbon footprint. The EPA has the Personal Emissions Calculator for you to get an estimate of your personal or household greenhouse gas emissions resulting from your energy use and waste disposal.

It is a cool calculator and as you go along you can adjust your inputs to see how much those changes affect your carbon footprint. For instance, you can adjust the input on the miles you drive if you are thinking about reducing your dependency on your car by riding a bike or using public transportation to get to work. Give it a try, you will be amazed at how much little changes can make.
