The title page refers to the article on the evaluation
and comparison of two simplified LCA methods (p. 119 -
128). These are the MECO-method (MECO: Materials, Energy,
Chemicals and Others) and the ERPA-matrix (ERPA: Environmentally
Responsible Product Assessment). The methods were
chosen since they are well documented and fundamentally different.
They were tested on a case study of electric cars and
cars with combustion fuel. The paper discusses the usefulness
of simplified LCA methods.
