The author of the project invites visitors to find out how much greenhouse gases they emit into the air. The carbon footprint calculator is available on the project website, where you can learn about your daily and yearly emissions. The calculations are precise and at the same time quick and simple, based on questions about five major factors. Visitors can also see in real-time what their carbon footprint looks like: an inflating balloon visualises the physical volume of greenhouse gases emitted into the air daily by an individual. The installation presents ways in which a person can offset their carbon footprint: special pictograms represent actions which can be taken to curb climate change.
