78th LCA Forum - Life Cycle Thinking = Lower Environmental Footprint?

LCA is supposed to help us tackle the huge global environmental challenges, as the necessary improvements of our global environmental performance (impacts on climate, biodiversity, water, toxic effects, etc.) and the global trends do not yet match at all. LCA alone cannot do the trick, but we would expect LCA to be an important tool supporting economy and society to identify ways how to operate within planetary boundaries. But is this the case? Which big decisions did make use of LCA and led to substantial environmental improvements? And what can we learn from them?
