re: issue #265 I suggest adding a new tier1 variable to reflect fossil or biomass carbon e.g., in plastics or asphalt manufacture that is embedded in the product, rather than being emitted. In my view only biomass-derived carbon should be reported as carbon removal. @fschreyer

This proposed variable seems to be a duplicate of "Carbon Capture|Utilization|Materials|*".

And "Carbon Removal|*" describes "Gross removals of carbon dioxide (CO2) from atmospheric origin or biomass through deliberate human activities" (see the description).

Agree with Daniel. Why can it not be reported in either Carbon Capture|Utilization|Materials or Carbon Removal|Materials?
