The value of life cycle assessment – Podcast with Emily Townsend, President, LCANZ
In this episode of Stirring the Pot, Emily Townsend – LCANZ president speaks about the environmental footprint of products and services, and the value of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in understanding those impacts.
Throughout this podcast, the concept of environmental life cycle thinking is explored, which is concerned with the environmental impacts of products and services from cradle to grave. Or – in other words, from extraction of raw materials all the way through to the return of these materials to the Earth. It’s this approach that has formed the basis for development of the environmental management tool LCA.
