Résumé : |
Emissions are produced by the growing of an animal through farming, slaughtering, separating into various products and by-products, processing the hide into leather and manufacturing a product from that leather. An emission of great interest at the moment is the production of carbon dioxide (or its equivalents). Carbon dioxide levels have been rising in the atmosphere and the IPCC AR6 (2022) concludes that the clirnate change currently being experienced is correlated to a carbon dioxide level of over 400 ppm.
Many leather companies are now engaged in measuring their carbon emissions, also referred to as greenhouse gases (GHG), throughlife cycle assessments (LCAs). In these assessments, all the processes and sub-processes are detailed so that companies are aware of areas where the most emissions exist. |
