Apparently Glass Animals' "Heat Waves" has produced over 3000 tons of carbon emissions

Last week Uswitch published a new report that uses Spotify data including play count, streams and song duration to find out the environmental impact of some of the world’s most popular songs.

Using a list of 200 songs, Uswitch narrowed down to 10 tracks across different categories - including Christmas songs - that use the most electricity (which causes the most carbon emissions).

On the list of the top 10 most popular songs using the most carbon emissions, Glass Animals' "Heat Waves" is in first place, having produced over 3000 tons of carbon emissions, which would apparently need over 128,000 trees to absorb the carbon output in one year.

"Heat Waves" is followed by Olivia Rodrigo's "good 4 u", which apparently produced 2867 tons of CO2 that would need 119,479 trees to compensate for the emissions generated.

On the top 10 Christmas songs causing the most emissions list, Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You" is in first place, producing over 3,500 tons of CO2, and needing over 146,000 trees to absorb the carbon output.
