Carbon Footprint Dashboard

Enter the electricity use and the gas use and Carbon Footprint Dashboard computes the monthly CO₂ in kg directly on the page, so you can adjust assumptions and watch the result follow.

1. 1

   Step 1

   Enter consumption or emissions data.

2. 2

   Step 2

   Hit "Calculate" and the result is computed automatically.

3. 3

   Step 3

   Review the result and details below before relying on it.

• 1

  Labels first: Carbon Footprint Dashboard applies its computation to the electricity use and the gas use exactly as typed, so a wrong unit or a comma read as a decimal mark shifts the monthly CO₂ in kg silently.

• 2

  Isolate what drives the outcome: hold everything constant and move only the electricity use, then read how the monthly CO₂ in kg responds — that single-variable sweep is the fastest way to learn the sensitivity this page is hiding.

• 3

  Record the inputs with every output: a result only carries meaning beside the electricity use and the gas use that produced it, and keeping the pair together lets you update just the field that moved instead of rebuilding the calculation from memory.

• A value in the wrong field: Carbon Footprint Dashboard computes the monthly CO₂ in kg anyway, so a figure meant for the electricity use entered as the gas use reads as correct arithmetic answering the wrong question — verify field by field.

• Treating one run as final: the monthly CO₂ in kg comes from exactly the values typed today, so quoting it without those assumptions blocks re-verification; save the electricity use and the rest beside the result before it reaches a decision.
