Hypothetical extraction as a method of input-output economics is highly useful for analyzing the contribution to environmental footprints of specific industries, corporations, or intermediate products. Here, the method is derived in detail, based on a new paper published in the Journal of Industrial Ecology. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/jiec.13522 As an example, results for materials are presented from two additional papers published in Nature Geoscience and Environmental Science & Technology. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41561-021-00690-8 https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.2c05857

Editor's Notes
- #7: In the symmetric IO table , each industry is the exclusive supplier of a single commodity. The interpretation of the market balance is still the same: the total supply is equal to the sum of all demand, both intermediate and final.
- #8: In the symmetric IO table , each industry is the exclusive supplier of a single commodity. The interpretation of the market balance is still the same: the total supply is equal to the sum of all demand, both intermediate and final.
- #9: In the symmetric IO table , each industry is the exclusive supplier of a single commodity. The interpretation of the market balance is still the same: the total supply is equal to the sum of all demand, both intermediate and final.
- #31: Extraction and processing of material resources (fossil fuels, minerals, non-metallic minerals and biomass) accounts for over 90% of impacts on land-use related biodiversity loss and water stress, over 55% of greenhouse gas emissions and up to 40% of particulate matter related pollution. Growing and harvesting biomass (agricultural crops and forestry) contributes over 90% of total land-use related biodiversity loss and water stress. All these impacts show an increasing trend.
- #46: So, we are comparing 4 6-year periods from 1995 to 2018. And look at how the different drivers have impacted the emissions.
- #47: These are aggregated embodied emissions for those 6 year periods.

- #50: Energy efficiency however does a strong comeback As well as metal consumption intensity
