What are the implications of calculating greenhouse gas emissions on a life-cycle basis for the design of domestic emissions trading systems? / by Robert Hornung and Erik Haites. : En133-5/9-1999E-PDF
This paper looks at one such method: allocating responsibility for GHG emissions on a life-cycle basis. It describes the concept and rationale behind addressing GHG emissions on a life-cycle basis; examines the extent to which life-cycle accounting can be applied to GHG emissions; and discusses the potential application of life-cycle accounting within the domestic GHG emissions trading system options being examined by the NRTEE.--Introduction
