trash/garbage not listed, so I put it under “goods:services” BUT while we pay $40/quarter we only put out trash 1/mon and then it is not full. We believe this has BIG carbon footprint, no?

Living in an older home causes problems such as heating and cooling, and it is expense to update. Keeping heating and cooling temperatures at a minimum doesn’t seem to reduce emissions. I would like to know more efficient ways to reduce costs and contribute to environmentally safe methods.

Nice job! Thank you!
…If “goods” are all bought second-hand, do they count? (Presumably local transport would be the only significant emitter?)
…If I don’t drive or own a car, how do I set Miles Per Gallon and Fuel?
Thanks!
