Can someone tell me a website i can use to calculate the amount of greenhouse emission i save by recycling?

Question

-this is for a biology report and i am so lost!

Answer 1

First -geewhiz, how can you be so foolish.  You cannot see oxygen in the air but I am sure breathing would be hard without it.  Global warming is real, the effect humans have on it are real, the only question is the end effect of all the change.  

To answer the original question...The EPA has some environmental calculators.  Also the Inconvenient truth website has some stuff on it.  Finally and most drastically you could estimate yourself but looking at energy to make the raw material  and subtracting the steps not needed because of recycling.  Example:  glass no longer needs to have materials refined and blended together before melting and molding.

Answer 2

facts for thoughts= gases, exhaust, carbons and black smoke from fires decipate in front of your eyes== NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CAUSE OF GLOBAL WARMING.

Answer 3

Try one of these (they were used in a presentation at my work for calculating our carbon footprint)
