    With something like carbon emissions, it’s going to be very difficult to control for every other variable, however, the difference from peak to 2022 is an over 12% decline. If that rate stays steady enough, that’s a huge victory overall.

      I’d be interested to see where 2023 is. It was the first year which seemed like there were no pandemic restrictions, including the “back-to-office” rush which happened mid-2023.

        For sure. I’m not sure what the turn time is on compiling that data, but it’d be interesting to see.

        Honestly, any kind of double digit reduction from peak seems like it would be worth considering iterating elsewhere in the world.
