Our forest impact
2.3M hours of Netflix (or cat videos)
equivalent CO₂ offset by our 81.96 tonnes captured
How we calculated this
Calculation methodology
The emissions of 0.036 kg (36g) of CO₂ per hour are calculated based on streaming in HD quality. This includes both data transmission and device power consumption.
81,960 kg ÷ 0.036 kg = 2,276,667 hours of Netflix (or cat videos)
Our forest captured: 81.96 tonnes CO₂
Emissions per hours of Netflix (or cat videos: 0.036 kg CO₂
