The Power of LCA - 2021 Summit of the Life Cycle Association of New Zealand
Event description
Join us for the LCANZ Summit at GridAKL in the Wynyard Quarter, Auckland on 25th February 2021.
The Power of LCA Summit will include speakers from the LCA community as well as industry insights from our members. The theme for the day reflects the power of LCA to support the needs of today's business and society, and the importance of understanding and mitigating our impacts in order to build back better.
Our keynote speaker, Katie Symons, is Principal Advisor Engineering to MBIE's Building System Performance Branch and is leading the Building for Climate Change programme's whole-of-life embodied carbon framework. We're looking forward to hearing Katie update us on the methodology MBIE are developing for their embodied carbon assessment ahead of the upcoming public consultation.
