The journal is the first journal devoted entirely to LCA. LCA has become a recognized instrument to assess the ecological burdens and impacts connected with products and systems, or, more generally, with human activities. LCA is a process to evaluate the environmental burdens associated with a product, process, or activity by identifying and quantifying energy and materials used and wastes released to the environment; to assess the impact of those energy and material uses and releases to the environment; and to identify and evaluate opportunities to affect environmental improvements. The LCA-Journal - which has been expanded by a section on Life Cycle Management (LCM) - is a forum for Scientists developing LCA and LCM ; LCA and LCM practitioners ; Managers concerned with environmental aspects of products ; Governmental environmental agencies responsible for product quality ; Scientific and industrial societies involved in LCA development ; Ecological institutions and bodies.
Types of papers include: historical sketches, short version of actual LCAs and case studies.
