Kate Power – Embedded Emissions

What things you enjoyed the most about your experience this week?
This is my first week of tracking and I am excited to see that (so far) I AM living a 1.5°C
lifestyle!

What were the main challenges you faced during the week?
This week is very easy because unfortunately one of my children is in quarantine, which
means we are not eating out or using any transport. So I am expecting my emissions to
increase next week . . .

What were your main lessons learned of the week?
I moved house just before the pilot started so I am painfully aware of the large number of
things that we own. The tracking spreadsheet has helped me to learn about the upfront
carbon emissions of all the stuff I own – and see that this a very significant part of my carbon
footprint.

What are the main things that would have made your experience this week easier?
Nothing – this was an easy week for me.
