Cotton made in Africa's (CmiA’s) ecological footprint is one of the impact categories that the Aid by Trade Foundation wants to review regularly, and a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is one of the tools used to achieve this. In April 2021, an updated and extended LCA study for CmiA was published. At this webinar, you will learn what steps the LCA experts from Sphera took to calculate the impact categories under review and how to interpret the results, as well as which statements about impact categories (such as Global Warming Potential) are legitimate from the perspective of an LCA expert, and which are not.
