Global Warming

Measured in carbon dioxide equivalence (CO2-eq).

Global warming is defined as the change in global temperatures caused by the emissions of greenhouse gases from human activity.

When released in the atmosphere, these pollutants trap heat, causing a global increase in temperature. This in turn affect the global climate, resulting in climatic disturbance, increased desertification, and rising sea levels amongst many other effects.

Your impact is measured in weight of CO2-eq emissions prevented. When you recycle, you help avoid the emissions of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Fossil Energy Demand

Measured in megajoules of energy (MJ).

Fossil fuels are extracted from the Earth crust and burned to produce energy in the form of electricity or heat. This energy powers our transportation systems, our manufacturing sites, as well as many other aspects of our economy and personal life.

Your impact is measured in the amount of fossil fuels saved when you recycle.
