产品环境足迹综述

Review of product environmental footprint

为使广大学者更加深刻和清晰地理解产品环境足迹内涵,在收集了产品环境足迹相关信息,阅读并参考了产品环境足迹相关文献及指南的基础上,从其内涵、实施步骤等方面总结了产品环境足迹的主要内容,阐述了其与欧盟现行环保政策的关系,介绍了产品环境标识和组织环境足迹。同时,针对产品环境足迹这一体系对我国出口贸易所造成的影响,提出了一些应对措施。研究结果表明,产品环境足迹与生命周期评价的大多数内容是一致的,不同的是产品环境足迹更为明确与详细,要求严格,制定了较为统一的实施标准。

Aiming at offering more profound and clear understanding of product environmental footprint （PEF） for scholars, PEF main content was concluded from its meaning and implementation steps, by collecting PEF relative information, reading and referring to the literature and guide. Then, the relationship with EU environmental policy was analyzed. Product environmental sign and organisational environmental footprint （OEF） were also introduced. Meanwhile, considering the effects to Chinese export trade, some measures were suggested. The results indicate that most content of PEF is the same with life cycle assessment （LCA）, but PEF is more clearly and detailed, with strict requirements, offering a more uniform implementation standard.
