Compared with a U.S. average

The same calculator, now with broader context for climate, electricity, water, materials, land, waste, air quality, and digital infrastructure.
per year
These panels are meant to answer a different question than the footprint total: when you conserve, where does that effort sit inside the much larger systems of water, energy, industry, agriculture, transportation, and waste?
Your total is personal CO2e. It is not shown as a percent of U.S. emissions because one person is tiny at national scale; instead, your estimate is mapped to the same kinds of sectors.
Your faucet use is not 6% of U.S. water. It is part of the public-supply slice. The second group shows your own estimated water signal, where food often dwarfs direct household water.
Your kWh belongs mostly to residential demand, while data centers generally sit in commercial/industrial demand. Impact depends on grid mix, peak demand, and new load growth.
Your trash is visible, but many material impacts happen upstream. The national MSW number is a waste benchmark; your materials signal also includes goods and device replacement.
This is an educational estimator, not a formal inventory. It uses U.S. customary inputs and reports annual pounds of CO2e. Advanced context values for water, materials, and digital infrastructure are directional signals for discussion, not precise accounting.
