The document discusses various topics related to climate change and energy use, including carbon footprints, energy independence plans, and consumer choices. It introduces Wattzon.com as a social network and wiki that allows users to measure their energy use, compare it to others, learn how to conserve energy, and make changes to reduce their impact. Key metrics provided include average household power usage in Watts and examples of how different daily activities contribute to an individual's energy footprint.

11. What is my relationship to climate and energy?

12. HOW MUCH POWER
DO I USE?

13. Using units of power allows you to compare things that happen on
markedly different time scales. yearly + monthly + daily + ...
Power, in Watts, is like an average.
The average amount of energy, in Joules, you use each second.
= 7,462 Watts
If you do something monthly (like your electricity bill), it contributes:
= 170 Watts
If you do something daily (like drink 1 Energy drink), it contributes:
= 90 Watts
