Elinikäanalyysejä
Elinikäanalyysi, or life cycle analysis (LCA), is a systematic method for evaluating the environmental impacts associated with all stages of a product's life, from raw material extraction through materials processing, manufacture, distribution, use, repair and maintenance, and disposal or recycling. The goal of LCA is to identify the environmental burdens of a product or service across its entire life cycle, allowing for informed decision-making to reduce these impacts.
The LCA process typically involves four main phases: goal and scope definition, inventory analysis (LCI), impact
LCA can be applied to a wide range of products and services, from consumer goods and packaging
