How to Use This Calculator

Score Material (1–10): 10 for organic/recycled fibers, 1 for virgin synthetic.
Score Production (1–10): 10 for certified ethical factories with renewable energy, 1 for conventional offshore.
Enter Transport Distance (miles) from factory to distribution center.
Score Packaging (1–10) and End-of-Life (1–10): 10 for recyclable/compostable, 1 for single-use plastic.
Review Overall Sustainability Score, Estimated Carbon Footprint (kg CO₂), Sustainability Grade, and Weakest Area to prioritize improvement.

How the result changes with Material Score (1-10)

Material Score (1-10)	Overall Sustainability Score
1.9	3.92 / 10
4.15	4.6 / 10
6.85	5.4 / 10
9.1	6.08 / 10

Material Score (1-10): 10 = organic/recycled, 5 = conventional natural, 1 = virgin synthetic.
Production Score (1-10): 10 = renewable energy, zero waste. 1 = high energy, chemical-intensive.
Transport Distance (miles): Total shipping distance from raw material to retail (factory to warehouse to store).
Packaging Score (1-10): 10 = zero/compostable packaging. 1 = excessive single-use plastic.
End-of-Life Score (1-10): 10 = fully recyclable/biodegradable. 1 = non-recyclable, landfill only.

Sustainability Grade: 1 = poor, 3 = average, 5 = excellent.
Weakest Area: 1 = material, 2 = production, 3 = transport, 4 = packaging, 5 = end-of-life.
