Subject: [PATCH] Fix: handle missing carbonIntensity and fossilFuelPercentage
 safely
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The displayCarbonUsage function now includes null-safe checks to prevent runtime errors when CO₂ Signal API data is missing. Added user-facing fallback text and console warnings.
