Do you have any recommendations for good sources of data on energy embodied in consumer goods? I've been making a little calculator but have foubd it almost impossible to find trustworthy sources of evidence on this https://robinl.github.io/robinlinacre/energy-usage

You need to get it from the vendor so it's really up to them if they publish LCAs for their products. Apple and Microsoft do for their hardware but I've not seen many other companies do so.

E.g. https://www.apple.com/euro/environment/pdf/a/generic/product... and https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=559...

Thanks!
