For the [Environmental Footprint Estimation](/environmental-footprint/additional-content/environmental-footprint-calculator-estimation/), we base the calculation on a theoretical value of 30% CPU usage. On your [monthly report](/environmental-footprint/how-to/track-monthly-footprint/), we use your real CPU consumption to provide you with the most reliable data possible.
