Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) attempts to model the natural and industrial ecosystems of the world. To accomplish this rather ambitious task, many choices and assumptions have to be taken. These choices include how to classify and separate industrial activities, how to link and delineate regions and regional markets, average versus marginal producers, and how to do allocation. This summer school will examine many of these choices and assumptions in depth, and attendees will use new software to build and test their own system model.
