The AWARE method is a regionalized water foot printing method compliant with ISO 14046 developed by WULCA and a result of an international consensus building process that took several years. *No previous knowledge of openLCA is needed althoug it would help to understand how the implementation works. The presentation will shortly summarize the AWARE LCIA method and will explain the implementation in openLCA followed by a small demonstration and Anne-Marie Boulay, the main chair of WULCA committee for the development of AWARE will also join our talk. You can attend it next Tuesday 16:00 – 17:00 (Berlin time – UTC/GMT +1 ) clicking here. Practice exercise: guided application to the realisation of a LCA in the IT laboratory of DIATI.We are happy to announce the new tool available in openLCA for regionalized water footprint, after almost a year of colaboration between GreenDelta and CIRAIG we finished implementing AWARE in openLCA and to celebrate we are offering a Webinar about AWARE and our implementation.* Presentation of case studies in the fields: building materials and built structures, waste management, agri-food, bio-energy.
