Livscykelpåverkan
Livscykelpåverkan refers to the total environmental impact of a product or service throughout its entire lifespan. This assessment, often called a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), considers all stages from raw material extraction, manufacturing, transportation, use, and eventual disposal or recycling. The goal is to quantify the environmental burden associated with each phase, including resource depletion, energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, water usage, and waste generation.
By analyzing the entire life cycle, it becomes possible to identify the most significant environmental hotspots
The concept of livscykelpåverkan is crucial for promoting sustainability and making informed decisions in product development,
