Best Answer

Your "Carbon Footprint" refers to the amount of CO2 and other greenhouse gases that are produced in the production of the products and services that you consume. Sometimes it is the amount produced minus any amounts 'offset' by activities that remove CO2 etc.

As the damage to the global environment by the release of these gases is a major concern, the level to which an individual contributes to the problem is important.
