I calculated my carbon footprint at http://www.climatecrisis.net/takeaction/carboncalculator/
I had a total of 10.1 tons which is larger than average (7.5 tons)
I watched the tally as I was entering the information. It didn't jump at all when I entered my GMC Envoy, major jump when I put the miles driven per year. The other large item was the number of airline flights. My gas and electric bills seem minor to these other items.
Thinking about strategies to reduce this number would be to carpool when possible and try to teleconference or WebEx long distance meetings to avoid the air travel.
