BARE, J. C. The Connectivity Between Site-Specific Life Cycle Impact Assessment and Site-Specific Weighting. Presented at EDecIDe Weighting Model Workshop, Oslo, NORWAY, September 21, 2011.
Impact/Purpose:
To inform EPA
Description:
The goal of many LCIAs is to come to a single score with all of the impacts from a wide variety of impact assessments weighted to form this single score. My past experiences with developing site-specific impact assessment methodologies and how this can change the valuation portion of the process will be presented. I will also present my specific experiences with site-specific LCIA practice and experiences with the valuation process in the United States. The intention of this presentation is to contribute to conversations which will assist in the evaluation of trade-offs specifically related to carbon capture and storage and the Artic region.
