Downstream impacts
Embodied Carbon, The Inventory of Carbon and Energy (ICE), By Prof. Geoffrey Hammond and Craig Jones, Ed. Fiona Lowrie and Peter Tse, published by BSRIA in 2011, defines downstream impacts as: ‘Impacts associated with processes that occur at future, downstream, points in the system relative to the process under investigation. For example, in the case of a finished product sitting in storage its eventual delivery is a downstream process.’
