What is "carbon cost" of bronze?

Does anybody have some accurate figures on "carbon cost" of producing bronze for statues? Our hiking group desires to know for producing a statue.

Hi, John. I read in the news just this morning that it is expected to be 10 years before there is any general agreement on carbon costs.

Consider buying a Prius and just going ahead with your statues. 5000-7000 gallons of gasoline savings can cast one heck of a lot of bronze. Good luck.
