So how much carbon emissions did this release?

Not much more than if the test was successful. The fuel would have burned either way.

Much less than if it had actually launched. It burns on the ground, when it blows up in the sky its just pollution. Not to mention all the "venting" that happens during engine relights and coast periods which just means dumping methane and oxygen.
