The document discusses improving life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology by including spatial, dynamic, and place-based modeling. It summarizes limitations of current LCA approaches, such as their static and site-independent nature. The document proposes linking industrial models with spatially explicit, dynamic ecosystem models to better account for location-specific environmental impacts over time. This approach could help address current LCA limitations by simulating how placing industrial activities within actual ecosystems may affect environmental burdens.
