This paper addresses the importance of consistency with official statistics in MRIO-based carbon footprint accounting, highlighting how aggregation bias can be avoided to improve reliability. It offers methodological insights for policy-mak…

Wietske van der Bijl, Bahez Gareb, Koen Klomberg +4

This study conducts a life cycle assessment of CAR-T cell manufacturing, quantifying carbon emissions. Transport is the dominant contributor, with centralized manufacturing emitting 355.75 kg CO2e versus 72.85 kg CO2e for point-of-care. Clo…
