Calculate your impact by finding out how many tons of atmospheric carbon you’re responsible for adding each year.
Mine was 4.1 tons per year, which is smaller than average. And yes, this includes my 5 round-trip airplane flights a year. My secret? Wind-powered eletricity (zero emissions) and very little driving (I take the bus to work).
How do you stack up?
Hi. I'm Chris Miller. Professionally, I'm a graduate student in my fifth year of a Computational Biology PhD program, where I use large scale integration of genomic data to help understand the aetiology of cancer.
In my free time, I'm a techie, a Linux user, and I enjoy exploring the intersection of technology and culture. When not in front of a computer, you'll find me playing ultimate frisbee, jamming on my guitar, talking politics, or enjoying the great outdoors.
Since there are too many Chris Millers in this world, I added my middle initial to get this domain name. I long ago gave up the pretense of web anonymity that many people cling to. To me, this is the natural corollary of all that "be yourself" advice you got in grade school.
