For those of you wondering what you are doing in Korea and are feeling the upcoming winter blahs, this website might make you feel better. It let syou measure your environmental impact on the planet and gives you a chart showing your average emiisions compared to a typical Mi-guk-saram. Nect time your choking on bus fumes and moped smoke, remember you are (probably) tiptoeing on Earth compared to most in the States/Canada/Australia

You emitted 917 pounds of air pollution in November.*

Say what? 917 pounds is a lot of chocolate, but is it a lot of pollution? You can judge by comparing yourself with the second bar on the graph, which represents the emissions profile for an average American--1,654 pounds.

Your biggest source of emissions in November came from the category: Electricity
