Assignment 2: Estimating your annual carbon footprint

Please estimate your operational energy consumption (in kWhr) per year. Please provide references or source of your energy calculation for every equipment. Did the energy consumption vary for any equipment if you used an energy monitoring device? Please estimate your operational energy based carbon footprint (in kg CO2 equivalent) per year. Can you also estimate your transport related carbon footprint (in kg CO2 equivalent) per year? What are the other sources of your carbon footprint? Can you think of ways of reducing your energy consumption on a yearly basis? It is suggested that the trees can absorb approximately 25 kg of CO2 per year ( CO2 absorption potential of a tree). Could planting trees help in bringing your energy consumption down?
