Whilst I'm sure the study is well written and we do need to research information like this, I have one side comment to make because one always sees news like this and I think it gives people/corps some kind of get out of jail card for doing anything useful to halt climate change.

How about, crazy fucking idea here, companies get regulated to perform more sustainable manufacturing practices?? Just an idea.

Yeah I feel the same, I mean it's great to have help to reach the goal but it's never we are going to produce less carbon emissions that its the root cause
