How do you actuallu measure environmental impact?
I'vee been getting more interested in sustainability lately, and one thing i'm still trying to understand is how people actually measure whether an environmental project is making a real impact.
As a newbie, i usually see things like "planted 10.000 tress" or avoided X tonnes of CO₂," and honestly um not always sure what those numbers really mean beyond the headline.
For people who know more about thhis, what metrics do you usually look at to tell whether a project us actually making difference on the ground?
