Project name:
Knowledge transfer of Life Cycle Assessment and Footprint Analysis in Baltic Sea Region
Project summary
The “Knowledge transfer of Life Cycle Assessment and Footprint Analysis in Baltic Sea Region” project aims to increase the general public’s understanding about their impact on the environment and climate by increasing understanding of instruments like the life cycle assessment and footprint analysis methodology. With the climate targets set in the EU for 2030 and 2050, the green transition has to be supported within all key areas – industry, research, government and society. However, society and the public is the fundamental that builds industry, research and government later on. Therefore, the project aims to strengthen the green transition of our societies and work towards carbon neutrality and a sustainable circular and bio-based economy by giving society a better understanding on how to asses their impact, as well as the impact of businesses. Additionally, the project aims to identify how understanding on green transition relates in the Baltic Sea Region (Estonia, Latvia, Denmark) by comparing results of country activities in a joint summary to improve project dissemination.
