Manual Carbon Footprint Calculation for Food Products
Food retailers and manufacturers face an impossible task calculating the carbon footprint for each of their tens of thousands of products. Current methods require extensive manual tracing of supply chains and ingredients, taking up to 6 months per product, making it unscalable for large inventories.

[Feature]: Net Energy & EROI Engine — energy payback, the net energy cliff, and buffered EROI for storage
# ✨ Feature Request ## 📝 Description `carbon_payback.py` answers how long an investment takes to repay its embodied **carbon**. Nothing in the app answers the prior question: how long it takes to repay its embodied **energy**, and how much surplus energy it delivers over its life once that repayment is made. I would……

[Feature]: Time-explicit (dynamic) LCA — cumulative radiative forcing instead of a fixed GWP horizon
# ✨ Feature Request ## 📝 Description Two modules in this repo already know *when* emissions happen, and then throw that away. `src/environment/landfill_methane.py` implements the IPCC first order decay model. Its whole purpose is to say that the methane from food waste buried this year comes out over the following……

Cross-cutting: Make the CO₂ impact figure a verifiable claim instead of a restatement of the donation amount
> **Goal this serves — Radical transparency (README) · v1.5 Impact Dashboard** > > The README promises *“radical transparency”* and *“Soroban contract tracks every donation and CO₂ offset.”* The donation half of that is true and verifiable on-chain. The CO₂ half is not measured, not sourced and not verifiable — it is……

[Feature]: Reactive Nitrogen & Phosphorus Footprint with Eutrophication Accounting
# ✨ Feature Request ## 📝 Description EcoBuddy AI measures everything a household does in kg CO2e. Climate is only one of the boundaries a diet or a garden pushes on, and for food it is frequently not the binding one. The nutrient cycles — reactive nitrogen and phosphorus — are the boundary that agriculture……
