Reviving our Testimonial Tuesday We have received some heart warming feedback to our short introductory online LCA course "Leader's LCA" on Trustpilot, so we decided that e wanted to share some of these with our network: "Super relevant introduction into the world of LCA The LCA learning program was enjoyable and absolutely relevant in topic as well as just the right depth in order to digest and make it stick. I would highly recommend this basic LCA training for anyone making decisions at corporate level related to products and/ or services (being it R&D, marketing, procurement, sales...)" - Karel Golta, CEO, Indeed innovation "Great video course for learning the basics of LCA." - Gabriella Lovas "I highly recommend the LCA eLearning course from the Environmental Impacts Academy. It offers clear, comprehensive content that seamlessly bridges theoretical knowledge with practical application. Interactive knowledge checks and additional resources further enhance the learning experience. The course structure is engaging, and the insights provided are invaluable for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of life cycle assessments and for 21st-century leaders committed to sustainability." - Sonja Hilkhuijsen, CEO, Linkvalue Stay tuned for more testimonials, both for our Hands-on LCA training program and our short leader's LCA intro course.

✨ A piece of old news, but good news! ✨ In November, I completed the Leaders LCA course from the Environmental Impacts Academy, and while I was doing it, I didn’t realize just how much I would benefit from it during the upcoming months! This course has been incredibly valuable in helping me better understand the world of environmental impact assessment but interesting enough, also the current landscape of environmental sustainability in digital advertising and the Global Media Sustainability Framework. Even if you’re not working directly with Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), having a basic understanding of what it is and how it can be used is crucial if dealing with any form of sustainability—and this is exactly what this course delivers. A huge thanks to the team (Poul Lindqvist & Tanja Holm - LCA training) behind this program for providing such valuable insights! If you're in digital media, advertising, sustainability, or have any interest what so ever for knowing more about Life Cycle Assessment, I highly recommend checking it out: https://lnkd.in/dhqtQMpw The next step: putting this knowledge into action! 💡 #Sustainability #DigitalAdvertising #LeadersLCA #LCA #GMSF

A few thoughts about the Global Risks Report 2025 by the World Economic Forum #WEF 1. Can't disagree with the biggest near-term risk, "Misinformation and disinformation". Stopping myself from going off on a long rant here. 2. There is actually a ranking of risks for the current year. Extreme weather events is ranked second only after armed conflicts. 3. Only two environmental risks in the top 10 in the two-year time horizon. For example "Critical change to Earth systems" is ranked lower than "Debt" and "Biodiversity loss and ecosystem collapse" is ranked lower than "Economic downturn". This raises the questions of who made this ranking, what is wrong with these people, or what is the ranking based on? Well first of all, the report is based on a questionnaire filled by 900 people who the WEF selected, so people who should know about economy. The ranking is based on the answer to the question "Please estimate the likely impact (severity) of the following risks over a 2-year and 10-year period." So it seems like the economic impact of these events - in the very near term of the next two years - is likely to be in that order. Fair enough. 4. The top four risks over a 10 year period are environmental and a total of five out of the top 10 are environmental. The first one is "Extreme weather events", which can mean many things. Not just that you get a bit of bad weather but extended droughts, floods, hurricanes/typhoons/cyclones and in this context, affecting the global economy more than anything else. The following three, "Biodiversity loss and ecosystem collapse", "Critical change to Earth systems" and "Natural resource shortage" are all mind-blowingly monumental issues. None of them will be short term problems that go away . They will all be permanent changes to the world. So yes the economic impact will be massive and last for as long as anyone reading this will live. These are the biggest risks within the next 10 years compared to the status quo - where we already see negative impacts related to the environment. 10 years is just a blink of an eye. Think of an event that happened 10 years ago. It feels like it was just yesterday, right? Urgent action is needed. I just wonder if, still, the people in #Davos really grasp this. I sincerely hope so. So what can we do to help those same people in Davos with the green transition. What do you think? All picture credits: World Economic Forum #environmental #globalrisks #WEF25

I’m happy to share that I’ve obtained a new certification: Leader's LCA from Environmental Impacts Academy! I took the course since LCA includes many of the aspects needed for companies preparing for a CSRD reporting, and indeed topics like: - company´s impact, - value chain - how to communicate avoiding green-washing, were really well explained. Through the course it becomes very clear how an LCA can help a company develop a sustainability roadmap, by highlighting hot spots, showing where improvement could be done and creating data driven targets, while also generating the information you may need for reporting as well as to respond to customers and authorities enquiries. Tanja Holm - LCA training and Poul Lindqvist thank you for a very well designed course!
