Mainstreaming the carbon footprint
Mainstreaming the carbon footprint
While working with "Meet the Press" on in the background this morning, as a commercial came on I heard the question "Do you know your carbon footprint?" and my ears stood up. The commercial was a staged set of "man on the street" snippets where the unseen interviewer would ask t hat question, and the interviewee would act completely clueless... what the heck is a carbon footprint?
It was a new BP ad that directed viewers to a page with the header "It's time to start a low-carbon diet." The page has a link to a nifty carbon footprint calculator. (My footprint was less than the national average, but I could still stand to lose a few tons). Needless to say, it's cool to see this mainstreaming of the ecological footprint concept, and I'm not surprised to see that the origin was BP
