A LCA of frozen cod fillets' environmental impacts

Although transport is clearly a major issue in the life cycle of some fish products, this paper finds that the actual fishing stage of the life cycle is by far and away the most significant from a GHG emissions perspective.

Although transport is clearly a major issue in the life cycle of some fish products, this paper finds that the actual fishing stage of the life cycle is by far and away the most significant from a GHG emissions perspective.

Transport and preparation in the household featured as the most critical stages after this. The paper: An Life Cycle Assessment of Frozen Cod Fillets Including Fishery-Specific Environmental Impacts, by Friederike Ziegler, Per Nilsson, Berit Mattsson and Yvonne Walther, and published in the International Journal of Life Cycle Assessment 8 (1) 39-47 (2003), can be read here.
