2: In carbon accounting, its not uncommon at all (at least on the forestry side), to switch between some kind of standard or regional unit like board feet, or acres, whatever, and units of CO2e (CO2 equivalent), which are always international units. People have a direct understanding with something like a gallon of gasoline, whereas a unit of CO2 is abstract from the get-go.
i and the rest of the world bar USA have zero clue what a gallon is. I’m assuming it’s some sort of arbitrary measument of something. possibly the depth of a hat?
your gallon and kg combination gave me a TIA.
Why not just explain it all in metric?

Do you not, in-fact, consider the capacity of your fuel tanks in units of hat depth?
Curious…
well of course i do, i mean it’s simple common sense.
