LCA IX is the annual meeting and conference of the American Center for Life Cycle Assessment (ACLCA). It brings together hundreds of academics and professionals in environmental life cycle, as well as industry, government, and NGOs. I was there this past week in Boston because I focus on sustainable engineering and design. One aspect of that is developing techniques to integrate Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) into the product development process.
