From the diff, perhaps stale but:

> Carbon Emitted (Power consumption x Time x Carbon produced based on location of power grid): 11250 kg CO2 eq.

That's ... Sobering.

My work uses a monorepo without precise dependency tracking (Bazel or similar) so every single diff builds everything and runs a ton of tests. About 6 kWh of electricity per diff. Even for typos.

Nobody seems especially bothered.
