ChangeNOW 2022: Digital Sobriety Ranking of Partner Websites

On the occasion of the ChangeNOW 2022 event, taking place from May 19 to 21 at the Grand Palais Éphémère in Paris, Greenspector measured the environmental footprint of the websites of the partners of the event.

Ranking of the environmental footprint of partners

The average carbon impact over one minute of navigation by these 98 partners is 0.50 gEqCO2, or the equivalent of 4.5 meters travelled in a light vehicle. Only 31 websites are above this average, which indicates a good trend. The soberest website in this ranking (the ADEME site, 0.2 gEqCO2) has 8.1 times less impact than the least sober site (heforshe, 1.62 gEqCO2).

The average power consumption (mAh) is 5.23 mAh, and an average of 8.36 MB of exchanged data. The average of web requests is 78.

Each of its websites and applications was measured using our Greenspector Benchmark Runner on an S7 smartphone (Android 8), allowing automated tests to be run.

Scenario details:
– Application loading
– Inactivity website in foreground
– Scroll
– Website inactivity in the background

Each measurement is averaging 5 homogeneous measurements (with a low standard deviation). The consumption measured on a given smartphone on a wifi type network may be different on a laptop PC using a wired network, for example. The cache is first emptied for each iteration.
