Media: BBC - UK Carbon Trust launches LCA for CO2 emissions

A scheme to help companies measure the total amount of carbon emissions from their goods and services has been launched by the Carbon Trust.

The new scheme's "carbon investigations" will look at the amount of carbon being emitted at each stage of a product's life; from the supply of raw materials and production, through to delivery, consumption and disposal. This approach is also known as a "lifecycle assessment" or "cradle-to-grave" analysis.
