The first beta version of the UP Scorecard was published already some time ago. Since then, we have received many encouraging comments and valuable feedback on the use and further development of the tool. Many thanks for that!
Based on the feedback received and after much discussion within our working groups, we are now working on finalizing an updated and expanded beta version of the UP Scorecard set to be released within the next couple of months. In particular, this next version will include many additional food packaging products to compare as well as clearer navigation and presentation of results.
Looking even further ahead, we are also already working in parallel on our next major upgrade. This will include adding a framework to regionalize the impacts of foodware and food packaging by allowing users to apply average European life cycle data (in addition to the US average data currently included).
The new year is looking to offer some big innovation and exciting developments for the UP Scorecard. If you want to stay up to date, be sure to sign up for the UP Scorecard newsletter and follow us on Twitter and LinkedIn.
