Figure 2

Emissions breakdowns along a product’s value chain, by sector. Sectors are sorted, left to right, by increasing average CI. Numbers in parentheses at the end of sector labels indicate sample size as per Table 1. Error bars show SEMs (Methods), with only one side of the symmetric error bars shown, to avoid cluttering the graph. For 3 sectors, the end-of-life portion could not be separately quantified because those sectors did not include any products with the respective breakdown for end-of-life emissions.
