Inventory indicators for Life Cycle based Sustainability Assessment

Data collection guideline for pressure indicators for Life Cycle based Sustainability Assessment” that covers the specific issues of each pressure category indicator (in LCA parlance called inventory indicators) in the above framework. The pressure category indicators are organised in groups, covering the triple bottom line of economic, ecosystem (resources and emissions), and social (mainly occupational) indicators that are relevant for data collection in the foreground system, i.e., the activities that are under direct control of a decision maker.

This guideline is prepared by Bo P. Weidema of 2.-0 LCA consultants, Denmark, for the 2.-0 SDG Club and the UNEP Life Cycle Initiative as part of the project “Linking the UN Sustainable Development Goals to life cycle impact pathway frameworks”.
