In the context of buildings and other physical infrastructure, embodied carbon is the carbon footprint associated with the materials and construction processes.
The excess of an end amount over a starting amount.


It is the total carbon footprint incurred before the project becomes operational.
For example, the excess of the accumulated principal and interest at the end of an investment period, over the amount originally invested.
 
In this simple case the gain might also be the same as the total amount of interest earned for the period.
