Example calculation below.
Definitions
co2value_g = 2667
This is the CO2-equivalent value associated with your product. Our example product accounts for 2667 grams.
Daily Food Unit: 1.6 DFU
Short for “Daily Food Unit”, this is the number of Daily Food Units associated with your product. Our example product has 1.6.
global CO2/DFU_g = 3894
This is the global CO2 divided by Daily Food Unit ratio, that we’ve calculated based on the millions of products that we’ve analyzed.
Result
Reduction value = 3894 * 1.6 - 2667 = 3563.4
