Description

We conducted a field test where participants completed the two theoreticalyl strongest carbon footprint calculators (CFCs), calculating their individual, annual CO2-eq emissions. These data shows the outputs of those two CFCs by category and subcategory. All outputs are expressed as tonnes of CO2-eq. While the totals are notably similar, variances are seen in categories and subcategories. These variences suggest different underlying methodologies, despite a similar overall total. This may cause confusion for users who want to reduce their emissions based on their largest emissions categories.
