If your project needs planning permission and you do the work without getting it, you can be served an âenforcement noticeâ ordering you to undo all the changes you have made. Itâs illegal to ignore an enforcement notice, but you can appeal against it.
In 2014, U.S. greenhouse gas emissions totaled 6,870 million metric tons (15.1 trillion pounds) of carbon dioxide equivalents. This total represents a 7 percent increase since 1990 but a 7 percent decrease since 2005 (see Figure 1).
Foodâs carbon footprint, or foodprint, is the greenhouse gas emissions produced by growing, rearing, farming, processing, transporting, storing, cooking and disposing of the food you eat. In the US, each household produces 48 tons of greenhouse gases. Transport, housing and food have the three largest carbon footprints. Food produces about 8 tons of emissions per household, or about 17% of the total.
