      In 2015, food-system emissions amounted to 18 Gt CO2 equivalent per year globally, representing 34% of total GHG emissions. The largest contribution came from agriculture and land use/land-use change activities (71%), with the remaining were from supply chain activities: retail, transport, consumption, fuel production, waste management, industrial processes and packaging.

      Food = total GHG emissions * 0.34

      Agriculture = Food * 0.71

      (supply chain activities: retail, transport, consumption, fuel production, waste management, industrial processes and packaging) = Food * 0.29

        I know how to: .71 * 18 = 12.78 Gt, which is more than double what your graph ascribes to agriculture.

        Also, there’s no need to be rude, even if I had been wrong.
