You're missing one of the biggest contributors: construction. Cement and steel are both huge sources of carbon emissions. There are potential solutions to this, but it's another very difficult area to transition.
- adrianN 4y agoI kinda counted them under "industry", but you're right that it might make sense to have them separate. Steel is a smaller problem than cement though, since steel can be made with hydrogen, you only need a little carbon.
- rbanffy 4y agoIndeed. Cement is a big problem. In the meantime, we can do the things we know how while we figure out what do we do with cement.
