What is Life Cycle Assessment?
Life-cycle assessment (LCA), which began in the 1960s has evolved as an internationally accepted way to analyze complex impacts and outputs of a product and the corresponding effects on the environment. This state-of-art methodology produces environmental information based on the allocated inputs and outputs to a product. Furthermore, the environmental outcomes can accurately target the source of impacts such as where, when, and how impacts occur through a product’s life.
