About this Event
There is increasing social and political pressure on all domains of human activity to consider the impact on the environment. Life cycle analysis (LCA) is a standardized process that looks at the relative impacts of different stages/components of a product’s life cycle to determine where to best direct efforts to reduce resource-use intensity. Matt Oryschak will discuss studies completed by Alberta Agriculture & Forestry to determine the LCA-based green house gas (GHG) footprint of chicken and egg production.
