[QUOTE="Neogaia777, post: 77624771, member: 294131"] I don't know what my carbon footprint now is? But using too much power/electricity is a concern of mine, even more so lately, etc. There is no real way for me to know exactly how much I am using, since I live in an apartment building, and have no individual meter, and my electric bill is always the same, since it is included with rent. It's also important to note that where I live most of the power for everyone here is mostly hydroelectric where I live, etc. But it is still a concern of mine, so I have taken efforts to use less, etc. I bought a kill-a-watt meter recently and am gauging/documenting just how much each individual "thing" I have is using, etc. I bought a 32 inch monitor to go with my fanless mini-pc, and each is rated at 10 watts each, but I also have a 55 inch TV that I use a lot also, which is 80 watts of electricity, but by "a lot" I mean when I'm using them, because they do stay off a lot of the time also, as I don't watch TV or play video games as much as other people most usually do always, etc. I don't have or use A/C, but do have a few fans going a lot of the time, or with some, or a few fans, almost always, etc. I already know that my electric heat is the biggest consumer of electricity right now that I run during the winter months mostly. I do like to keep it at a comfortable temp, so I'm not giving that up easily, etc. I also have a laptop that I use occasionally, and video game console systems that I run occasionally, etc. I have a deep freezer and refrigerator that uses some electricity, electric stove/oven for cooking, and a 900 watt microwave that gets used occasionally. I'm working on gauging everything with my kill-a-watt meter right now, but am trying to not use as much electricity. Oh, and I guess I should have mentioned this at the beginning, but I don't drive/can't drive anymore/don't have a vehicle/driver's license anymore, and that is for the rest of my life now basically, and have a e-bike bicycle that I use now, or public transportation to get around/do things anymore basically, so no carbon footprint anymore now there basically. God Bless. [/QUOTE]
