(Sorry, Jill!) Apparently, a carbon footprint is “the total set of EMG (greenhouse gases) caused directly by a person, organization, event or product.” Hmmm. I know some people who have some prints relatively high carbon footprint, emissions-ing talking. But since this is a family journal, the discussion ends here.
