Biodiversity and life support indicators for land use impacts in LCA
A method has been operationalised to include the main impacts of land use on ecosystems in life cycle analysis (LCA). The aim of the research is to evaluate and develop indicators for potential land use impacts in LCA. In LCA terms this implies the operationalisation of the characterisation of these potential land use impacts in terms of category indicators to be applied in life cycle impact assessment (LCIA). The method described is applied to various cases.
