Understanding Product Environmental Footprint and Organisation Environmental Footprint methods
ID 17782 | 07.10.2022
The Product Environmental Footprint (PEF) and the Organisation Environmental Footprint (OEF) are life cycle assessment (LCA) based methods to measure and communicate the potential life cycle environmental impact of products (goods or services) and organisations, respectively.
Together they form the basis for the EU Environmental Footprint. This report aims to describe the elements that characterise the environmental footprint and guide the reader in understanding the fundamentals of the methodology and the tools available for its application.
