==== 2.Collaboratively mapping carbon emissions, starting with top categories ====
===== Very slow lifecycle =====
* Food is a "fast moving consumer goods" in the sense that it gets bought, used and discarded quickly, thus increasing the speed of data collection on Open Food Facts
* You don't own 20 TVs in your lifetime, and so core contributors of Open Food Facts will see their impact limited.
* Here's [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1p_wGUQlyolvMbXLEQIpMkSiXRQmVM4loJNwVa4wWtoY/edit#gid=0 a spreadsheet analysing that]
