GB transferred → kg CO₂ and a hair-dryer time analogy.
Uses 0.06 kg CO₂ per GB transferred (order-of-magnitude network-energy proxy). Hair-dryer minutes assume a 1.5 kW dryer and the same default grid intensity as our other carbon helpers (~0.42 kg CO₂e/kWh).
≈ 300 g CO₂ (0.300 kg)
Human-readable impact: about 28.6 minutes of typical hair-dryer electricity at the default grid mix—roughly how long you would need to run a dryer to emit a similar amount from the wall.
Digital Carbon Footprint Calculator helps you gb transferred → kg co₂ and a hair-dryer time analogy. It is commonly used by engineers, lab users, field operators for digital carbon footprint, data transfer co2, streaming emissions estimate.

CO₂ (kg) ≈ GB × 0.06 (order-of-magnitude network-energy proxy). Display also shows grams.
Hair-dryer minutes use a ~1.5 kW dryer and the same illustrative grid factor as other ToolsGenie carbon helpers—not for carbon accounting.
