Yet another carbon calculator

To find your personal carbon footprint (the emissions that you have some direct control over), fill in the boxes below. The figures used for the calculations are shown for each item - but be aware that a lot of assumptions and simplifications have been made.

WARNING: This is still in an early test phase, and there may well be a few bugs to iron out. Feel free to suggest changes via the Message Board. Once we have a consensus over the figures, we can then list the sources and assumptions used.
