CO2 Released When Making or Using Products

I've been looking around for a simple source of information on what the CO2 emissions associated with using certain materials are.
The CO2List.org site is the best I have found so far for providing this kind of information in a usable format.

They offer this table that summarizes CO2 emissions associated with many materials and activities...

Small sample from the table.
If you know of other good sources for this kind of information, please let me know.

More references and calculators on CO2 emissions and energy use for activities...
(e.g. -- did you know that the QE2 gets 0.0075 mpg?)
