Does anybody know about this site ( http://www.earthlab.com ) ? I have seen other environmental sites with carbon calculators like yahoo and tree huggers, but I am wondering what the deal with earthlab.com is, is it credible? I saw they also published a list last month of the top ten greenest cities ( http://www.efficientenergy.org/Top-Ten-Green-Cities-in-the-United-States ). Does anyone know if this site is better than say WWF site? Fill me in
I took their carbon foot print test and it was pretty interesting, but they said that I put out 4.5 tons of carbon while another test gave me like 15 tons? I think I trust earthlab.com’s test a little more (because my score is lower). Does anyone know about any other tests?
There are many sites that provide carbon calculators and it’s hard to judge who’s credible and better. I think we can use different calculators and average the scores. Also, as long as we take action to reduce our carbon footprint, it does not really matter which calculator we use (but we should use the same calculator for before and after tests). Like the Chinese saying, “Don’t care whether it is a black or white cat, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat”. Some carbon calculators:
