At 10,000 views a month this page emits about 6.1 kg CO₂e a year, roughly 25 km in an average petrol car. The estimate assumes 75% new and 25% returning visitors, a measured cache reload ratio of 2%, and world-average grid intensity. How we calculate this

What to fix

apply everything → ~0.041 g/visit, rating A

  1. Reduce JavaScript payloadsave ~0.0058 g/visit (63 kB)Medium impact · moderate effort

    18 scripts total 253 kB on the wire (943 kB decoded). Bundles this size usually carry a lot of unused code.

    Split bundles per route, tree-shake dependencies, and audit with a bundle analyzer or coverage profile. A 25% cut is a conservative target for bundles this size.

  2. Optimize web fontssave ~0.0043 g/visit (47 kB)Advisory · quick fix

    4 font files total 134 kB.

    Subset fonts to used glyphs, prefer one variable font over multiple weights, serve WOFF2 only, and consider system fonts for UI text.

  3. Simplify the document structureAdvisory · larger effort

    The page renders 5345 DOM elements, above the 1,500 guideline. Large trees cost memory and CPU on every visitor's device.

    Flatten wrapper markup, render long lists virtually or paginate, and prefer semantic elements over nested divs.
