      abstract     = {Understanding the environmental impact of professional
                      activities is becoming paramount in current times,
                      especially within sectors that historically have had
                      significant resource utilisation, such as High Energy
                      Physics (HEP) and related fields. The young High Energy
                      Physicists (yHEP) association launched the Know your
                      footprint (Kyf) campaign to evaluate the
                      CO$_\text{2}$-equivalent emissions generated by HEP-related
                      research. This study delves into the carbon footprints
                      associated with four distinct categories: Experiments, tied
                      to extensive collaborations with substantial infrastructure;
                      Institutional, representing the resource consumption of
                      research institutes and universities; Computing, focusing on
                      simulations and data analysis; and Travel, covering
                      professional trips such as to conferences, meetings, and
                      workshops. The findings in this assessment are integrated
                      into a tool for self-evaluation, the Know-your-footprint
                      (Kyf) calculator, which allows colleagues to assess their
                      personal and professional footprint, and optionally share
                      their data with the yHEP association. The aim of the Kyf
                      campaign is to heighten awareness, foster sustainability,
                      and inspire the community to adopt more
                      environmentally-responsible research methodologies.},
