Did you search for... "co2 meter python"? The pypi package called "CO2meter" (https://github.com/vfilimonov/co2meter) not only works well as a library on Mac OS, but also comes with a web-based dashboard:

  $ pip install CO2meter flask pandas
  ...
  $ co2meter_server

Though with your steps it at least starts, but the webserver fails, and CTRL+C doesn't work ^^

co2meter_server writes measurements to "logs/co2.csv" in the current working directory every 30 seconds or so. As long as there is no measurement, you'll get this error from the web app trying to access the file. Just wait a minute and refresh the page.

That looks great as well! But for some reason the library they use (pyhidapi) would always crash on my Mac.
