This project is creating more usable analytics and visualization tools to help product designers and engineers understand and act upon sustainability considerations. We focus on life cycle assessment (LCA), which evaluates the environmental impacts of a product throughout its life cycle, from extraction and processing of raw materials to manufacturing, distribution, use, and final disposal. We partner with Synapse Product Development and EarthShift Global to ensure our tools are tailored to the needs of real-world practitioners.
