Input/Output analysis - Shortcuts to life cycle data?
Workshop on
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Input/Output-Analysis (I/O-A)
Friday, 29th september 2000, Copenhagen

Lunch |
13.00 |

uncertainty (Greg Norris, Harvard University and University of New Hampshire, USA) |
13.30 |
Example: The statistical basis for integration of working environment in
LCA (Anders Schmidt, dk-TEKNIK) |
Discussion:
14.00 |
What role should I/O-A play in relation to LCA, for e.g. validation,
filling data gaps, limiting errors, or as an actual LCA-tool (hybrid method)? Advantages
and disadvantages of increased use of I/O-A and I/O-data in LCA market based LCA and
I/O-A. Possibilities for more economic modelling and forecasting?
Need for new initiatives to make I/O-A useful for LCA? |
16.30 |
