What on Earth is a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)?
Description
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is the scientific method for measuring the environmental footprint of your products. It’s often perceived as something ‘too complex’ & ‘academic’. Let’s make LCA accessible to businesses. So today we are breaking it down.
Our environmental specialist Emma Thunnissen has dealt with just about everything concerning LCA with our clients. That’s why we thought she was the perfect person for the task of explaining the ins and outs of LCA.
In the episode:
- How does LCA work?
- What kind of footprint results do you get?
- How can you use your LCA results?
- And a concrete example: Measuring a snowboard’s environmental footprint.
