Revising the Role of Groundwater in Life Cycle Assessment (GWAT-LCA)
Start date: Feb 15, 2008, End date: Feb 14, 2010,
"Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is the standardised method for assessing the environmental impacts of any product or service. After quantifying all associated emissions and the consumption of resources, this impact is expressed with respect to a few common impact categories. These are supposed to reflect major societal and environmental priorities. Although groundwater is the most extracted raw mater ...
