The Greenhouse Gas
(GHG) Calculator


Do you know how many GHG emissions you produce each year? Use this calculator to find out and learn how to reduce them.

The calculator has two sections:

My Emissions Part 1 - Calculate your emissions
Answer questions about your daily activities and get a personalized report of the GHG emissions you produce, where they come from, and how you compare with other Canadians.


My Reductions Part 2 - Calculate your reductions
Select new actions you are willing to adopt to reduce your GHG emissions and help reach your one tonne goal. Although many of the actions in the calculator will affect your entire household, the results of your calculations will be individual.

Save your session so the next time you visit you can track your progress.

Did You Know?How much is a tonne?
One metric tonne equals 1,000 kilograms. The volume of one tonne of greenhouse gas emissions would fill a two-storey, three-bedroom house.
