Abstract
Household consumption is one of the important factors to induce CO2 emission. Change in lifestyle and increase in living expenditures with income growth may lead to increase in CO 2 emission. This paper aims to estimate CO 2 emission induced by household consumption and then to suggest them to offset the amount of CO 2. The paper calculated the inventory of CO 2 emission in Hisar city. The results indicated that the highest amount of CO 2 was by those families, who had high income level.
