"This review shows that assuming the current level of emissions from manufacturing, the electricity mix of the production location greatly impacts the total result. This is due to the fact that the manufacturing is a large part of the life cycle, and that most of the production energy is electricity."
If the world's energy systems continue to be dominated by fossil fuels, then manufacturing and transporting goods will continue to generate GHG. On the other hand, if we manufacture lots of Li-ion batteries to electrify our cars and run them on solar- and wind-generated electricity (which we make more useful by incorporating Li-ion batteries for peak smoothing), then their life cycle emissions will decrease.
If you intend to change a system, the system will not yet be changed at the beginning of your effort. Boy you are bad at changing things!
