Emissions embedded in durable goods, that is the heavy industry you are talking about - are not actually that major.

Heating, electricity, transport and food are by far the majority of our emissions. Industrial processes are like 15% of uk emissions or so

Does the 15% count in the production of any of the industrial processes that have been simply displaced to other locations?
