| Résumé : | In order to create a bridge between life-cycle assessment (LCA) experts and scientific and technology experts in metals, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) co-organized with the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) a workshop on LCA and metals. The 2002 Montréal workshop was sponsored by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC), and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation–Expert Group on Minerals and Energy Exploration and Development (APEC–GEMEED). Sixty experts from 17 countries participated, including representatives of the steel and aluminium sectors. Information on the mining, production, use, and disposal of metals was compared with existing LCA methodologies in order to evaluate gaps and enhance relevancy, and a short list of recommendations was captured under four themes: life-cycle inventory, metal mining, human and environmental toxicity of metals, and LCA and developing countries. Some of the recommendations have been incorporated into the UNEP/SETAC Life-Cycle Initiative |
