Title: Carbon Footprints
Post by: Mike_Boxall on June 07, 2011, 09:26:54 am: Hi
Has anyone here tried / or been asked to calculate their carbon footprint?
Would be interested in any comments anyone has.
Regards
Mike

I think the clue might be in what prowindow typed. If you look carefully, you can see that he burns coal. Otherwise, I suspect he'd have used the words "wood fire". Hope that helps.

I can`t stop now,mass genocide is what we need for those that can`t or won`t be controlled by breeding restrictions.Anything else is merely a pathetic gesture.
