Charcoal barbecue footprint

Notes

Unlike electric and gas barbecues, charcoal barbecues have a significant usage footprint: burning charcoal to cook food emits a significant amount of greenhouse gases. So we're counting both the construction and usage footprints.

How is this figure calculated?

  • Empreinte usage barbecue charbon * nombre moyen barbecues par an + empreinte construction barbecue charbon / durée de vie barbecue
