There would be advantages to people on limited bandwidth mobile data plans?

I'm gently curious about the amount of CO2 it takes to push that extra 40% through the Internet.

(Off topic: Seeing the Daily Mail on the Alexa list is profoundly depressing.)

CO2 from extra bandwidth? Probably less than a text-message.

According to this "Club Penguins" are a major source of CO2, I'm not sure why. http://visualization.geblogs.com/visualization/co2/#/club_pe...
