Life‑LCA: case study of the life cycle impacts of an infant

Authors: David Bossek, Vanessa Bach, Matthias Finkbeiner,

Journal: The International Journal of Life Cycle Assessment

Our Summary:

Life-LCA has advanced as a method of assessing and analyzing the impacts of human product and service consumption behaviour from the prenatal phase through age 49. According to the studies, more than 50% of emissions are attributed to transportation and food across all the impact categories, including climate change, acidification, eutrophication, and photochemical ozone formation. There is a high contribution from clothing consumption during the prenatal and infant phases, while energy and water have a major impact in adulthood phases.
