Conflict emissions
Build a working account of military emissions, attacks on energy systems, fires, reconstruction, and the data gaps around wartime carbon accounting.
Hypotheses to test
- The most actionable emissions evidence may be indirect: reconstruction, energy disruption, fires, and displacement logistics.
- Humanitarian disclosure could shift from perfect accounting toward transparent categories and uncertainty bands.
