If you would like to learn more about how Avient defines carbon footprint, check out this infographic.
Product carbon footprint calculations are generally an efficient method of estimating the total amount of GHG emissions that can occur across the value chain.
Other GHGs, like methane and nitrous oxide, still contribute to the carbon footprint calculation.
