How We Calculate Environmental Impact
Understanding the methodology behind our environmental calculations
Paper Equivalents
Different content types are equivalent to different amounts of paper:
- • Characters: 6 pages
- • Locations: 4 pages
- • Items: 2 pages
- • Documents: Based on word count (500 words per page)
- • Timelines: 3 events per page
We use the industry standard of 11000 sheets of paper per tree. This accounts for the average yield of a tree used for paper production.
Environmental Impact
Paper production requires approximately 10 gallons of water per 1,000 sheets. This includes water used in pulping, processing, and cleaning.
We estimate 0.05 kilowatt-hours of electricity saved per 1,000 sheets of paper, based on average energy requirements for paper manufacturing.
A mature tree absorbs approximately 21 kilograms of CO₂ per year. By saving trees, we're helping maintain this important carbon capture capacity.
These calculations are estimates based on industry averages and research. The actual environmental impact may vary based on numerous factors including paper type, manufacturing processes, and tree species. Our goal is to provide a meaningful representation of the positive environmental effect of going digital with Lorevilo.
