Average human being 15-25 breaths per minute @ 0.04g of CO2 per breath. Take an average of 20 breathes for arguments sake... 20 x 0.04 = 0.8g per minute Every minute typing at the computer generates 0.8g of C02, taking your 1000 user into the equation results in 0.8 x 1000 = 800g Slightly more than a car per km. You still have to include the energy input?

Average human being 15-25 breaths per minute @ 0.04g of CO2 per breath.
Take an average of 20 breathes for arguments sake…
20 x 0.04 = 0.8g per minute

Every minute typing at the computer generates 0.8g of C02, taking your 1000 user into the equation results in
0.8 x 1000 = 800g

Slightly more than a car per km.

You still have to include the energy input?
