Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a methodology for quantifying the environmental impacts associated with goods or services and supporting decision-making processes. The talk will begin with a brief introduction on life cycle thinking, environmental sustainability and LCA. Taking examples from a variety of research undertaken by the group, this talk will explore how LCA can provide a framework for comparing strategies and technologies. Examples will cover plastic waste management, energy systems and construction.
