Regional totals for impact footprints? #140

Open melllanieeemarrr opened 2 months ago

melllanieeemarrr commented 2 months ago

When using the readthedocs guidance to get the footprint of a specific impact : print(exio3.impacts.unit.loc["GHG emissions AR5 (GWP100) | GWP100 (IPCC, 2010)"]) exio3.impacts.D_cba_reg.loc['GHG emissions AR5 (GWP100) | GWP100 (IPCC, 2010)']

And then comparing to when I separated the footprints by sector, then sum the sectors to get to total footprint for the region - there is a discrepancy between the values, with the summed values slightly smaller . I'm new to pymrio & EXIOBASE so wanted to inquire if this was due to my own error or there was a reason behind the discrepancy.
