This tutorial walks through using the Webpage Measurement Plugins and related manifest file from Alex Zurbonsen, contributed as part of the Green Software Foundation's Carbon Hack 24, to calculate any web page's operational carbon, green hosting, and lighthouse scores by looking at the overall data transferred through website usage, and passing that data through the CO2.js plugin to turn that data into carbon equivalency.
