TheCarbonAccount.com is a new site provide information on how to live a greener life, as well as helps individuals to measure their personal impact on the environment.  It provides simple reading information on how to minimize your environmental impact on this site. As you register and create your “Carbon Account” you can enter personal and household data and start tracking your personal carbon footprint. Carbon footprint is a common term used to describe the total amount of carbon emissions you are personally responsible for. You may be directly responsible (such as the fuel you burn in your car) or indirectly responsible (such as the carbon emissions resulting from production and transportation of the food you eat). TheCarbonAccount takes both types into account when calculating your footprint. This site goes a step further than most other carbon footprint calculators by asking you to keep entering information over time – such as gas meter readings, car mileage, or information about flights taken. A Facebook App was just released by TheCarbonAccount.
