AN online green calculator is helping
residents come up with the right formula for energy savings.
People can log on to the South Yorkshire Carbon Footprint
Calculator website to work out their carbon footprint and calculate
how much money they have saved on their energy bills.
Residents will also be able to make a pledge to say how they will
be more energy efficient.
They will get an email a few months later to confirm they have met
their pledge and their carbon footprint will be recalculated.
Data will be stored and used to show how each local authority in
the region is actively trying to improve its carbon
emissions.
Councillor Mark Thompson, Doncaster Council's cabinet member for
environment, said: "We can all make immense savings on energy bills
by making simple, straightforward adjustments to our day-to-day
activities, while reducing our carbon footprint to a sustainable
level."
