Returned data table
Formula and methodology
Formula: Paper total=paper books×paper emission per book; e-book total=device uses×emission per use.
Both sides are scenario inputs, allowing regional lifecycle assumptions to be changed without pretending one factor is universal.
This result follows the calculator's declared inputs, precision, validation boundaries, and model limits.
Input contract
- Number of paper books — minimum 0; maximum 1000000000
- Paper emissions per book — minimum 0; maximum 1000000
- E-book device uses — minimum 0; maximum 1000000000
- E-book emissions per use — minimum 0; maximum 1000000
Worked example
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Number of paper books | 10 |
| Paper emissions per book | 2.5 |
| E-book device uses | 10 |
| E-book emissions per use | 0.2 |
Paper =25 units; e-book =2 units; difference =23 units.
Assumptions and limits
- Emission factors use one consistent mass unit and apply to the selected use scenario.
- The supplied factors include whatever lifecycle boundary the user intends.
- Device manufacture, electricity mix, reading time, reuse, recycling, and disposal are not independently modeled.
