Interpret and communicate results
The final step in using LCA software is to interpret and communicate your results. You should use your LCA software to generate graphs, tables, charts, or reports that summarize and visualize your results. You should also use your LCA software to perform sensitivity, uncertainty, and scenario analyses to test the robustness and reliability of your results.
You should interpret your results in light of your LCA goal and scope, and the data quality and availability. You should identify the main drivers, hotspots, and trade-offs of your waste management system, and the potential improvement opportunities and recommendations. You should also acknowledge and discuss any limitations, uncertainties, and assumptions of your LCA.
You should communicate your results to your intended audience, such as decision-makers, customers, or regulators. You should use clear, concise, and relevant language and formats, and follow the principles of transparency, completeness, and credibility. You should also provide the necessary documentation and references to support your LCA.
