There's another large source of human greenhouse gas emissions that will perhaps be the most difficult to do anything about and which as far as I know we don't have much in the way of hard numbers about, and that is emissions from military activity. Not just wars, but ordinary peace-time training, patrol operations, hauling stuff around, and so on.

It's not separate. That would be included in manufacturing, transportation, and electricity.

Ha! And military combat vehicles are exempt from emissions regulations.
