Always good to catch up on where "solutions" started, in Vienna's case with massive social housing projects like the Karl-Marx-Hof (1927-1930)...

Having trouble logging in, I must already have looked at it (will look again and report). In the meantime here's an example of a comparative carbon audit. The inputs are to a detailed spreadsheet, based on numbers from EPDs and inventories like Circular Ecology. Simple to make and tells the story.
