china international industry fair 2009.he said industrilized nations and china are dealing with different issues to combat climate change.the united kingdom，for example，is concerned about

called for a stronger focus on product lifecycle assesment，or lca，which is used to study the environmental impact of a product from the research and manufaturing stage through its usage and
