To make a product, raw materials need to be obtained and processed.
A life cycle assessment can reveal the people who benefit from each stage of a product’s life.
A life cycle assessment can reveal the costs to individuals or the environment at each stage of a product’s life.
At the end of its useful life a product can be repaired, recycled, incinerated or thrown away.
LCAs are often subjective, so it is important to consider the vested interests of those reporting on their findings.
