Life Cycle of Carbon Footprint
Carbon footprint refers to the greenhouse gases emitted from human activities, especially gases such as carbon dioxide that have a significant impact on climate change, causing environmental impacts. The life cycle of carbon footprint refers to the total amount of greenhouse gases released during the entire life cycle of a product, service, or activity. It typically includes the following stages:
Stage | Description |
---|---|
Production Stage | Greenhouse gas emissions released during the production of raw materials, such as carbon dioxide and methane emitted from fuel combustion. |
Transportation Stage | Greenhouse gas emissions released during the transportation of products or raw materials, such as fuel combustion and energy consumption of transportation vehicles. |
Usage Stage | Greenhouse gas emissions released during the use of products, such as energy consumption and fuel combustion. |
Disposal Stage | Greenhouse gas emissions released during the disposal, recycling, and reuse processes of products, such as carbon dioxide and methane emitted during incineration. |
Carbon Footprint Calculation Product carbon footprint calculation
Assuming an energy consumption of 0.05 kilowatts per hour.
Assuming an emission of 0.1 kilograms of carbon dioxide per kilowatt-hour.
Assuming that one tree can absorb approximately 22 kilograms of carbon dioxide per year.
