Hello, Crispy12monte.

A carbon footprint is the total amount of CO2 emitted by fossil fuels that someone consumes. Hope this helps!!

Carbon footprint is the amount of CO2 a person emits, either directly or indirectly. For example, CO2 you exhale is part of your carbon footprint. But CO2 released in the process of making your clothes also counts toward your carbon footprint.
