Single session event
This one-session workshop presents a framework for considering environmental and social impacts of manufacturing, food and travel through a collective web-based tool for Life-Cycle Assessment and Supply Chain Transparency. Principles of environmental and social sustainability will be presented, including evidence from carbon footprint assessments in hospitality, retail and product design. Participants will learn how to research and conduct life-cycle assessment for consumer products, foods and transportation and make map-based visualizations for sharing through online social networks. The 4-hour program is repeated each day and followed by an optional work session until 6pm. Please bring a laptop computer with Firefox/Safari/Chrome browser installed.
