Estimated carbon footprint, loss of natural habitat potential for one year, loss of plant and animal life potential for one year, and extinction potential, from making, packaging, shipping and/or using these products or services. ———– + Except for CO2 emissions, estimates are based on Habitat, Life, Extinction Formulas v2 by the XOEarth Team. + Estimates do not include the possible long-term ecological effects of climate change and persistent toxins. Formulas use “human appropriated net primary production (HANPP)” to “CO2 emissions” correlation. ———– 1 kg(kilogram) = 2.2 lb(pounds) 1 m^2(square meter) = 10.8 ft^2(square feet) 1 km(kilometers) = .62 mi(miles) 1 liter = .26 gallons |
