how have you derived the share of energy sources powering various websites?
- betsubara 4y agohey! we wrote a little bit about this on the "How this works" section, here you go: These CO2 emissions were estimated with BACKSPACE, a carbon analytics platform for websites. If this is the first time you're hearing about the internet's CO2 emissions, here's a quick primer: a website's energy consumption and subsequent CO2 emissions are calculated based on how much data was transferred in a visit, and the energy source the hosting provider uses. You can learn more about it here https://beta.backspace.eco/help#calculation https://beta.backspace.eco/help#calculation and here https://sustainablewebdesign.org/calculating-digital-emissions/ https://sustainablewebdesign.org/calculating-digital-emissio... let me know if you have further questions!
