I help teams to set carbon and circularity targets and bringing metrics on sustainability to help guide project decisions along side cost, schedule and user experience. I create LCA models of products and systems based on ISO ISO 14067:2018, cradle to grave methodology, highlight hotspots and work with different technical, business and design functions to figure out how to best reduce emissions from early product development phases.I lead projects with external consultants and also work like an internal consultant for several logitech departments to analyse and compare production methods, materials, components and product UX to make holistic design decisions to reduce environmental impacts while maintaining high product performance requirements.
