Report: Reducing the Carbon Footprint and Saving Energy Introduction Carbon Footprint refers to the amount of energy lost as carbon pollution into the environment. Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) are carried to learn the amount of carbon footprint of a process from the raw materials to the end-of-use. International and national standards and regulations are made for all industrial sectors, because gases with carbon, like methane and carbon dioxide (CO2), are greenhouse gases (Van Landegem 3). The greenhouse effect holds heat next to the surface of the earth making global warming worse. The measure of LCA is the carbon footprint Continue reading...
