As there is an increase in communication of concrete recommendations for better solutions and alternatives to build a better economy that protects nature, there is an increased need to back these recommendations with facts and figures about how they contribute to reduce our impact on the planet.

In this sense, the life cycle team has pulled together a very simple 2-page guidance on elements to consider when backing up your recommendations with strong life-cycle based science. The 2-pager also provides links to additional resources in case you feel you need a refresher on life cycle thinking!

We hope you will find this useful in demonstrating how the guidance from UNEP is helping shift the needle towards a healthier planet.
