  1. Personal consumptionpattern USA – Austria Project by Tanja Eschberger

  2. Overall results • Data World Bank (2010) – CO2emissions in metrictons per capita: USA – 17.6, Austria – 8

  3. Useofplastic • impact in kilos of CO2 per kilo of plastic: 2.3 • bagsforvegetables, groceries1 bag = 5 grams • packagesfrombuyingmeat, othergroceries, prepackagedmeals1 package = 20 grams

  4. Useofwaterbottles • impact in kilos of CO2 per kilo of plastic: 2.3 • impact in kilos of CO2 per kilo of glass: 0.3 • USA: plasticbottles 1 bottle (500ml) = 12.7 grams • Austria: glassbottles1 bottle (1l) = 500 grams

  5. Transportation • impact in kilos of CO2 per km: car – 0.35, bus – 0.2, train 0.09, airplane – 0.34 (+ 104 kilos of CO2 per takeoff)

  6. Airplane

  7. Transportation • impact in kilos of CO2 per km: car – 0.35, bus – 0.2, train 0.09, airplane – 0.34 (+ 104 kilos of CO2 per takeoff)

  8. Energy • impact in kilos of CO2 per kilowatt hour: 0.70555 • USA: energy used in my hall (City Hall) in the month of September • Austria (yearly energy usage in 2012): electricity – 2,810 kWh, gas – 1,990m3 (1m3 gas ~ 11 kWh)  overall 24,700 kWh per year
