What is a carbon pawprint?
A Carbon Footprint / Pawprint is the total amount of greenhouse gases that are generated by our actions.
- The carbon footprint of our pets, therefore, is the total amount of greenhouse gases that are generated by their actions (primarily, their diet).
- In the US, there are more than 163 million dogs and cats that consume, as a significant portion of their diet, animal products and therefore potentially constitute a considerable dietary footprint. Our pets create a considerable carbon ‘pawprint’ on the globe.
