How is AI changing the way we measure the carbon cost of what we build? One Click LCA founder and CEO Panu Pasanen joins the Climate Solutions News podcast to explain.
Life cycle assessment counts the full environmental cost of a product or building, from raw material to disposal. It is rigorous work, and traditionally slow. Pasanen explains what the discipline involves, why embodied carbon is so much harder to act on than the energy a building uses, and how his company cuts an assessment that once took weeks down to something that fits the pace of a live project.
He also looks ahead to AI that proposes whole low-carbon design options, with the human expert steering rather than building. On whether that output can be trusted, his answer is blunt: control, not trust. The platform monitors its AI constantly, tests it against large datasets, and grades the confidence of every proposal.
Recorded ahead of Reset Connect London, 23 and 24 June 2026, where Pasanen is speaking on supply chain decarbonisation and Climate Solutions News is a media partner.
