About the Symposium
The second Life-Cycle Analysis for Transportation Symposium (LCATS) will take place Nov. 16-17, 2023 in San Antonio, Texas. The event showcases various academic, industry and institutional research efforts on LCATS topics. Life-cycle analysis is a vital tool to understand total emissions produced during the manufacture, use and recycling/disposal of automotive vehicles. A “zero” definition at the tailpipe does not fully capture total cradle-to-grave emissions. With a focus on policy, this symposium is ideally placed to help guide future rulemaking efforts.
