In recent years, the greenhouse effect and climate change have become the focus of global attention, and the new term "carbon footprint" is more and more widely used in the world. Carbon footprint is usually divided into three levels: project level, organization level and product level. Product Carbon Footprint (  PCF) refers to the measurement of the sum of greenhouse gas emissions of a product at each stage of its life cycle, that is, from raw material extraction , product production (or service provision), distribution, use to final disposal/ The accumulation of various greenhouse gas emissions in multiple stages such as recycling . Greenhouses include carbon monoxide ( CO 2 ), methane ( CH 4 ), nitrous oxide ( N 2 O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFO), perfluorocarbons (PFC), and nitrogen trioxide (NF 3 ). The calculation result of product carbon footprint is the weighted sum of various greenhouse gas emissions in the product life cycle, expressed in carbon dioxide equivalent ( CO 2 e), and the unit is kgC O 2 e or gC O 2 e . Global warming potential ( Global Warming Potential.GWP), which is the carbon dioxide Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ( IPCC) . Currently, this set of factors is widely used around the world.
