I’ve watched the British Guardian develop a series of interactive modules with delight; I drag, I drop, I mouse over, and I learn. If you are not yet familiar with the Guardian’s interactive offerings, it’s a reasonable guess you’ll enjoy taking a minute or two out of your day to drag, drop, slide, mouseOver, and click at the Guardian’s interactives pages.
Today, they have an especially good new interactive, which many FDLers might enjoy checking out here. In less than one minute, you can see which choices you make have the largest, or smallest, impacts on your carbon use and carbon footprint.
Enjoy!

Thanks have done several of these on line. They make people think
But I don’t get the first question where they give the explanation. They say if you heat with wood or electricity slide it to the left. If you heat with coal slide it to the right. Most people heating with electricity are heating with coal from Coal burning power plants.
