Abstract
Forty-seven industrial products with verifiable records of life cycle energy consumptions over their manufacturing phases and usage phases provide the basis for this study. The environmental impacts for determination include global warming potential, ozone depletion potential, photochemical oxidants, acidification potential, and eutrophication potential. Correlations between these environmental impacts and the life cycle energy consumptions are the primary outputs of this study. It was determined that the energy consumption was an excellent indicator for many if not most of the environmental loads indicated above.
