This project aims to quantify the carbon intensity of commonly used commodities by analyzing their production locations and processes. The scope includes key materials such as steel, concrete, aluminum, copper, cobalt, gold, silver, silicon, magnesium, lithium, and critical agricultural products like wheat, soybeans, and nitrogen-based fertilizers. Additionally, energy resources—oil, natural gas, and coal—will be evaluated for their carbon impact during mining and production. By integrating data on production flows and supply chain dynamics, this study seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of the environmental footprint of these commodities. The findings will support informed decision-making for sustainability and emissions reduction strategies.
