Among the first studies to evaluate the water and energy relationship was a life-cycle analysis conducted by Peter Gleick in 1994 that highlighted the interdependence and initiated the joint study of water and energy.

It was set up by the government to promote BC wood products, educate on provincial forest practices, and provide research around sustainable forest management, life cycle analysis and the benefits of using wood products.
43.
At Carnegie Mellon he collaborated, among others, with Herbert A . Simon on questions regarding aggregation and causation in economic systems and with Franco Modigliani on the life cycle analysis of saving, spending, and income.

Since silicon solar panels only use one pane of glass, thin film panels are approximately twice as heavy as crystalline silicon panels, although they have a smaller ecological impact ( determined from life cycle analysis ).
45.
It is also a scientific research laboratory Which aims to optimize the ecological footprint of the sector, applying in particular the principles of eco-design through an Environmental and Social Life Cycle Analysis ( LCA ) approach.
46.
For example, life-cycle analysis has shown that it is often better for the environment to replace an old washing machine, despite the waste generated, than to continue to use an older machine which is less energy-ef�cient.
47.
The following table summarizes the mean GHG emissions estimated and the range of variations considering that the main source of uncertainty in the life cycle analysis is the emissions related to international land use change GHG emissions.
48.
This growth rate is very similar to the 10 % limit due to energy payback example for the nuclear power industry in the United States calculated in the same article from a life cycle analysis for energy.
49.
The highest trust levels would be a government recognized certification mark that was also compliant with key ISO standards especially ISO 14024-Type 1 Ecolabels that undertake ISO 14040 compliant life cycle analysis as part of their assessment.
50.
The table summarizes the mean GHG emissions estimated by EPA modelling and the range of variations considering that the main source of uncertainty in the life cycle analysis is the GHG emissions related to international land use change.
