Carbon emissions refers to how much carbon something releases into the atmosphere. Carbon in the atmosphere is a huge contributor to climate change. Emissions are measured in tons. For reference, one ton of carbon would fill up a cube that is 27' x 27' x 27'. Do you think you can figure out which activities below emit more carbon than the others?
