Measuring
Meter Readings: KvsCC will ask participants to give initial gas and electricity meter readings on the 30th of September and take monthly readings on the last day of each month thereafter. They also ask for the results to be submitted four times a year at the end of December, March, June and September.
Carbon Footprint: A member of the KvsCC team will calculate participants' footprint twice:
For the period 1st of October 2010 to 30th of September 2011
For the period 1st of October 2011 to 30th of September 2012
If you don't think the Low Carbon Living Scheme is right for your there are still plenty of other ways to get involved in our low carbon community. Come to green drinks on the first Tuesday of the Month in the Squire Basset pub to meet the KvsCC team and have a chat about anything you like, or sign up to Carbon Conversations with Lin and Rob, their expert facilitators.
