On this episode of Send It, JC gets into the math. If you can't measure it, you can't manage it.

We are diving into Module 3 to decode the complex world of Life-Cycle Assessments (LCA) and Carbon Footprints. We cut through the red tape of carbon accounting to focus on what actually impacts the project: material selection, waste reduction, and the massive carbon penalty of your structural choices.

In this Deep Dive, we cover:

• Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA): Tracking heavy-duty materials from cradle to grave, and why buying quality upfront lowers your overall life-cycle cost.
• The Embodied Carbon Culprits: Why structural systems and massive glass building enclosures do the most damage to your carbon budget.
• The 350.org Reality: Why the global atmospheric carbon target is actually sitting below our current reality.
• Engineering Wins: How electric arc furnaces have legitimately slashed the steel industry's carbon footprint by 36% since 1990.
