how this number is built
- method
- per-person, per-year estimate from the cited study (US DOE), world-average where the study allows; the million-people column is straight multiplication. 'for scale' divides by 0.8 t CO2e, the meat-free yardstick.
- range
- roughly ±50%: households, grids and countries differ widely
- confidence
- estimate
- weakness
- a world-average person. your number depends on where you live and how you already live; the country layer will narrow it. the ranking between actions is far more robust than any single figure.
