Life cycle assessments (LCA) and climate calculations are key tools in the sustainability transition of industry. However, current standards – including ISO and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol – are often inconsistent and open to interpretation. The Consistent LCA Standards project aims to identify and clarify these ambiguities, contributing to recommendations that may influence future revisions of standards.

In this webinar, we will present the project’s background, insights from case studies, and the ongoing and future work towards more harmonized standards. If you are curious about ongoing and future standardization and how inconsistencies can influence results, you are welcome to join and learn more! Register below to ensure that you have the event in your calendar. 

We welcome questions and interactions, and the webinar will include several opportunities for that.
