Our Calculators Provide Estimates

Climate guidance, calculator results, and technical information on FatGas.com is informational only and may be incomplete or out of date. Our calculators provide estimates using published average emission factors, and real-world figures vary by your region, the mix of energy on your local grid, individual behavior, and the assumptions behind each figure. Emission factors, grid data, and methods are refined over time. Before you make significant decisions based on these numbers, you should use your own judgment and verify the underlying figures with authoritative sources such as the EPA, the IPCC, and your local utility. Emissions and energy figures depend on many factors; always do your own due diligence.

Not Professional Environmental, Financial, or Scientific Advice

Content and tools on FatGas.com, including the Carbon Footprint Calculator, Flight Emissions Calculator, EV Savings Calculator, Home Energy Calculator, Solar Savings Calculator, and Carbon Offset Calculator, are for educational and informational purposes only and are not a substitute for advice from official sources or a qualified professional. They do not constitute professional environmental, financial, or scientific advice of any kind. The figures and suggestions our tools provide are general estimates based on average emission factors, not guarantees of your actual footprint or savings. Always verify emission factors, grid data, and figures with official sources such as the EPA, IPCC, and your local utility before committing your money, time, or plans.

Tool Accuracy and Limitations

Calculation Accuracy

Our climate calculators and tools provide estimates based on published average emission factors, the figures you enter, widely-accepted formulas, and common guidelines. Results should be used as starting points and planning aids, not exact values or guaranteed outcomes.

Factors Affecting Accuracy

Actual figures may vary significantly due to:

• Regional Factors: Your local grid mix, fuel sources, climate, and how emission factors differ from one region to another.
• Behavior & Usage: Your driving, heating, cooling, and consumption habits, and how each affects real-world emissions.
• Technology Choices: The vehicle, appliances, and energy sources you use, and how each suits your needs and goals.
• Measurement Factors: Self-reported figures, rounding, estimation, and differences between average and actual numbers.

Our Recommendations

For best results as you cut emissions:

• Use tool results as starting points and planning aids, not exact values.
• Always consider your region, grid mix, and individual behavior.
• Check important decisions against an official source before you act.
• Consult trusted climate resources and official data for specific questions.
• Compare multiple sources to improve future decisions.

Not Professional Advice

FatGas.com tools and content do not constitute:

• Environmental or Scientific Advice: Information about emissions, energy, and offsets is general only and is not a substitute for advice from a qualified professional or an official source. Confirm critical concerns with an authoritative source.
• Financial Guidance: Our tools and content are educational only and never replace sound judgment, official data, and advice from a qualified professional.
• Guaranteed Outcomes: Calculator outputs are planning aids only and are not a guarantee of your actual emissions, cost, savings, or results.
• Certified Expertise: Our content supplements but does not replace official environmental, financial, or scientific guidance.

Consider consulting official sources for:

• Authoritative emission factors, grid data, or regional figures
• Regulatory, reporting, or compliance requirements
• Utility rates, tariffs, or program eligibility
• Financial decisions such as solar or EV purchases
• Verified carbon offset programs and their claims
• Major energy or investment decisions specific to your situation

Honest, Non-Alarmist Guidance

Our tools provide general guidance only. Important energy and financial decisions can have lasting consequences and benefit from official data. Always:

• Consult Official Sources: Check the EPA, IPCC, or your local utility for any significant figure, factor, or persistent question.
• Respect the Uncertainty: Treat estimates as ranges, not precise measurements; do not assume.
• Use Good Judgment: Make changes gradually and notice how your energy use and emissions actually play out.
• Compare Widely: Weigh guidance against multiple trusted sources and follow official data.
• Confirm With an Official Source: Validate figures with the EPA, IPCC, or your utility before you commit to a purchase or plan.

If you have any concerns about your figures:

• Have significant concerns reviewed against an official source.
• Follow official guidance and applicable reporting standards carefully.
• Avoid committing to major purchases without due diligence.
• Follow sensible, evidence-based energy and sustainability practices.
• Treat unfamiliar figures and methods with extra care and caution.
