Challenge
We recycle, eat less meat, use the car less - but
what difference do all these decisions really
make? What is the baseline and what is the goal?
And how can one compare the effect of one action
to another?

We all want to make a


positive contribution
towards climate change,
but for most people it
can be hard to
know where to start.

Opportunity Because it is only when we understand the


consequence of our decisions, it becomes
possible to commit to changing them.

To try and answer this,


Doconomy together with the
UNFCCC secretariate, has
developed a carbon
calculator based on lifestyle
factors.

calculations

249 countries and regions which gives it
a global scope and allows for
comparisons of the result across
nations.

an overarching framework. Covering all
Greenhouse gases covered in the Kyoto
protocol, calculated in CO2e.

• State and public emissions and


emissions from land use, land-use
change and forestry (LULUCF) in the
country have been omitted, as there is
little an individual can do to directly
affect these emissions.

• A ”cradle-to-gate” perspective has been


used for purchased products in order to
avoid double counting.

• Assumptions and averages used are


clearly stated in the methodology

• Country specific emissions have been


used when appropriate
