Your 2019 was super green  
Hi Smiles Davis,  
Thanks so much for being with Bulb in 2019.  
We wanted to show you just how big an impact you’re  
having.  
By being with Bulb, your carbon emissions are 3,026 kg of CO 2 per year lower than an average home.  
That’s the weight of a tuojiangosaurus.

You use 1,944 k Wh of renewable electricity and 733 k Wh of green gas per year.  
Before offsetting,  
this reduces your emissions by 634kg of CO 2.  
It would take 930 trees to absorb that much in a year.

And we carbon offset the rest of your gas emissions too, making it 100 percent  carbon neutral.  
You're offsetting 1,226 tonnes of CO 2 each year.  
This does things like buying new cook stoves for  
families in Ghana, saving money on fuel and improving the quality of their air.

In total, all Bulb members have reduced their carbon emissions by the equivalent of 5.3 million  
tonnes of CO 2 through renewable energy and offsetting.  
That’s the weight of 240,000 Diplodocuses. Diplodoci? Diplodoodles?  
Anyway, you’d need at least  
3,117 Jurassic Parks to keep that many dinosaurs.

The more people who switch to renewables and offset their carbon, the less carbon the world will  
emit.

Share Bulb with your friends  
Each friend you bring over will reduce their emissions by about 3 tonnes of CO 2 each year.  
Just give them your referral link:  
link  
www dot bulb dot me slash lilyw 3437  
  
And we’ll give you each £50 if they bring their electricity and gas over to Bulb, or £25 if they  
just switch electricity or gas to Bulb.

We just wanted to say thanks for the impact you’re having. So, thanks. We think you're dino mite.  
Have a great 2020,

Calculations and other details  
Your emissions  
Your home’s impact is 0.00 g of CO 2 per k Wh of electricity and, after offsetting, 0.00 g per k Wh of  
gas with Bulb. You use 1,944 k Wh of electricity and 7,325 k Wh of gas a year.  
A  
link  
typical home  
on the  
link  
UK average fuel mix  
uses 3,100 k Wh of electricity and 12,000 k Wh of gas per  
year and emits 0.256 g of CO 2 per k Wh of electricity and 0.186 g of CO 2 per k Wh of gas, totalling  
3,026 kg of CO 2 per year. So your emissions are 3,026 tonnes of CO 2 lower than a typical home.  
Planting trees  
This government forestry report states that  
link  
trees in Kielder Forest absorb 2 kg of CO 2 per year  
on  
average. So saving 634 kg of CO 2 is equivalent to 930 trees.  
And this report recommends planting  
link  
2,500 trees per hectare of woodland

Carbon offsetting  
Carbon offsetting is a powerful tool for reducing your impact on the environment.  
We’ve written an  
article with more info about  
link  
how we offset our carbon emissions  
dot  
Your offsets have directly reduced the emissions for families in Ghana by providing more efficient  
cooking stoves.  
These improve the air quality in their home while saving money that would have been  
spent on fuel, allowing them to spend it on more important things.  
Dinosaurs  
A tuojiangosaurus is estimated to have weighed between 1.1 and 4.8 tonnes.  
We've assumed the mid  
point of these figures.  
Isla Nubar, the island in Jurassic Park, covers an area of 77km 2.  
Each  
link  
square kilometer now could  
link  
support two elephants  
, and since each diplodocus was considerably heavier than two elephants, they  
would need at least one square km each.  
Therefore 240,000 diplodocus would need at least 3,117  
Jurassic parks to support them.
