Green Thursday: Calculate Your Carbon Footprint

While in Paris, Charmaine and I used 28 Metro tickets to get around the city, instead of taking a cab. (We also walked our butts off. No wonder the French are soooo thin!) Mass transit in the City of Lights was always well-used, very clean, and we always felt safe. This got me thinking about our 'carbon footprint' on the planet, and I discovered that Al Gore has a calculater on his "Inconvenient Truth" website.
If you're like me, we've got a lot of work to do! Don't be discouraged by those who tell you that "individuals don't matter." Anything you can do to sustain good ol' Mom Earth is a step in the right direction.
Every Green Thursday we post information vital to the planet.
