EPS Geofoam Vs Lightweight Cellular Concrete Geofill - Which is better in terms of embodied carbon?

Foam is often used in areas where there are geometric differences (like big steps in the slab or slopes–and not always in the ground) and can be an alternative to concrete or gravel fill that is heavy and has consequences to the structure. Agree on the other impacts! May also be health impacts at source of manufacturing–would be interested if others have more info!
