Criterion:
3.b Emissions shall be estimated via a consistent approach to lifecycle assessment, with system boundaries from land to tank, including carbon embedded in the fuel but excluding vehicle technology.

Guidelines:
We keep the WtT + carbon embedded.
Waste products (defined by the IPCC as having no economic value) will have zero allocation of historical emissions. It is possible that the definition of ‘waste’ will be expanded beyond the IPCC definition.
