Slide 4: What Is Life Cycle Assessment (ISO 14040 Definition)
WHAT IS LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT (ISO 14040 DEFINITION) LCA is a technique for assessing the environmental impacts associated with a product, by • Compiling an inventory of relevant inputs and outputs of a product system, • Evaluating the potential environmental impacts associated with those inputs and

Slide 6: The Purpose and Limitations of LCAs
THE PURPOSE AND LIMITATIONS OF LCAS PURPOSE LIMITATIONS • Identify environmental hotspots along a product’s life • Not an exact science (methodologies, models and cycle. assumptions shape results). • Add an environmental dimension for decision- • For the same product, different LCAs can suggest make
Slide 7: Elevating the Debate: Moving from Linear Assessments to True Circular Thinking
ELEVATING THE DEBATE: MOVING FROM LINEAR ASSESSMENTS TO TRUE CIRCULAR THINKING • LCAs today are mostly linear instead of applying circular thinking, which would be more appropriate for fast moving consumer goods such as beverage packaging. • That is why Ball is sponsoring a multi-year PhD program at
