Handbook on Life Cycle Assessment

Operational Guide to the ISO Standards

Produktform: E-Buch Text Elektronisches Buch in proprietärem

Environmental policy aims at the transition to sustainable production and consumption. This is taking place in different ways and at different levels. In cases where businesses are continuously active to improve the environmental performance of their products and activities, the availability of knowledge on environmental impacts is indispensable.
