In the early 90s, the international and scientific community set out to assess the environmental, economic and social impacts associated with the various stages of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). This period also coincided with the rise of the concept of sustainable development, popularized by the Brundtland Report (1987). Today, the two approaches seem to be converging, with the aim of leading both governments and companies along the path to sustainability. On the one hand, life cycle assessment now comprises four stages (definition of the objective and scope of the assessment, inventory analysis, impact assessment, interpretation) and several forms of sustainability (LCSA: ELCA, LCC, SLCA, GLCA). On the other hand, the United Nations (2015) has launched a roadmap around the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Linking sustainable life cycle assessment and the SDGs is now a new step in the 2030–2050 agenda. This means identifying targets and indicators for a sustainable approach, and incorporating this new approach into the roadmaps (circular economy) of the different states.

摘要

In the early 90s, the international and scientific community set out to assess the environmental, economic and social impacts associated with the various stages of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). This period also coincided with the rise of the concept of sustainable development, popularized by the Brundtland Report (1987). Today, the two approaches seem to be converging, with the aim of leading both governments and companies along the path to sustainability. On the one hand, life cycle assessment now comprises four stages (definition of the objective and scope of the assessment, inventory analysis, impact assessment, interpretation) and several forms of sustainability (LCSA: ELCA, LCC, SLCA, GLCA). On the other hand, the United Nations (2015) has launched a roadmap around the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Linking sustainable life cycle assessment and the SDGs is now a new step in the 2030–2050 agenda. This means identifying targets and indicators for a sustainable approach, and incorporating this new approach into the roadmaps (circular economy) of the different states.
