What is the carbon footprint of corn or potato starch utensils?

fariya03 asked:


Specifically, is the production, manufacture and transportation process for corn starch utensils actually better for the environment than traditional plastic production? What is the comparison of the carbon footprints of the entire process? If corn starch utensils are biodegradable but they use more carbon to produce, is that really a better choice?

how can i calculate the carbon footprint of people in my school?

aingel93 asked:


For my school science project I have to calculate the carbon footprint of students in my school. I have looked up the internet but all I can find are either really detailed ones asking for the amount of fuel you use each year or really kiddy ones. Is there any way of calculating a persons estimated carbon footprint without having to use the computer and just getting them to fill out a simple questionairre?
Thanks so much!
