๐Ÿ” What is a carbon footprint?

A carbon footprint is the total amount of carbon dioxide (COโ‚‚) that goes into the air because of the things we do โ€” heating buildings, driving cars, eating food, using electricity. COโ‚‚ is a greenhouse gas that\'s warming our planet. The good news? When we measure it, we can shrink it!

How the investigation works

  • 5 steps investigating different parts of your school
  • Enter your school\'s real data (estimate if you don\'t know exactly)
  • Watch the carbon footprint grow as you discover more
  • Get your final school footprint and per-pupil score
  • Choose action pledges to help shrink the footprint!
