<p>Raphael: </p> <hr /> <div><br /> == CO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; numbers ==<br /> The diesel consumption for the electric power generation was roughly 25000 liters. That means, in rough terms, every attendee of the Camp used 5 liters.<br /> Burning 25000 liters produces around 77 metric tonnes of CO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; (better emission numbers of the actual diesel generators are welcome). [https://www.co2online.de/klima-schuetzen/mobilitaet/auto-co2-ausstoss/]&lt;br&gt;<br /> If we cover the area of the Ziegelei (249090 m&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; (Source: OSM)) with that amount of CO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; the height of that cover would be 17 cm (at 1024 hPa and 20 °C (roughly the average weather on day 4)).&lt;br&gt;<br /> In comparison the anthropogenic CO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; emission of around 40 Gt per year [https://report.ipcc.ch/sr15/pdf/sr15_spm_final.pdf] leads to an additional height of 4 cm per year (surface of the earth 510072000 km&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, same weather conditions as above).<br /> <br /> If we take the emission budget into account, for example the 420 Gt of CO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; (set at the start of 2018 for the 1.5 °C target)[https://report.ipcc.ch/sr15/pdf/sr15_spm_final.pdf], we have left around 353 Gt. That means around 692 g/m&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; (considering the surface the earth). The camp used up 310 g/m&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; (considering the the area of the Ziegelei).</div>
