Summer is travel season: the open road, a summer ride across the lake, new places to explore. Please consider your carbon footprint—the impact your activities have on the environment—before you turn the key, board the plane or cast off from the dock. To start, measure your baseline using one of the carbon footprint calculators available on the Radford Sustainability website.
