City Says Calculate Your Carbon Footprint

from AustinNotes:

The easy-to-use tool helps residential customers determine the amount of greenhouse gas emissions produced by their daily activities, including energy and water use, waste, modes of transportation and types of food consumed.

A convenient feature for residential customers is the ability to automatically download their electricity, water, wastewater and solid waste information into the application by simply entering their utility bill account number. Along with their carbon footprint score, users can learn practical ways to reduce their emissions throughout the year and participate in a social networking forum, offering open communication about climate change between concerned citizens.
