View Sonic VG2248 Monitor Report produced September, 2020
As part of View Sonic’s pledge to corporate citizenship and lowering our environmental footprint, we strive to serve the community by better understanding the significance of the product life cycle through product carbon footprinting. That process includes the estimation of emissions from materials, production, distribution, and end-of-life management.
This product’s estimated carbon footprint:
439 kg CO2e +/- 105 kg CO2e Estimated impact by lifecycle stage with breakout for manufacturing by component: For environmental footprinting, View Sonic utilizes Product
Attribute to Impact Algorithm (PAIA). Developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), PAIA is a streamlined life cycle assessment (LCA) tool that examines the greenhouse gas emissions released throughout the lifecycle of a product to calculate the product carbon footprint.
