Résumé

To keep the global warming below 1.5°C, the European Union (EU) committed to carbon neutrality by 2050. The EU acknowledge that achieving this goal will require to track the greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions of organisations, products and buildings, from cradle to grave. Carbon, and more generally environmental, impact of products and buildings is evaluated while performing life cycle assessments (LCAs). LCAs are not widespread so far in the EU. However, several signs show that LCAs will become the norm sooner or later.
LCAs are governed by precise and strict rules that are described in standards which describe the LCA’s process as well as how the environmental product declaration shall be performed and handled.
In the French law, before any building construction, it is compulsory to perform a LCAs. Construction projects shall demonstrate that GHG emissions from cradle to grave do not exceed defined thresholds.
LCAs provide a much wider picture of the environmental impact of products or buildings and can serve for building up the best strategy for reducing the GHG emissions.
