AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, the carbon footprint accounting methods for outdoor jackets ignore the differences in lifespan and washing frequency caused by functional and quality differences between individual products, resulting in distorted accounting results and discouraging companies from achieving carbon emission reduction by improving product quality.
We will construct a method for quantifying the carbon footprint of outdoor jackets based on their wearability during the usage phase. By establishing a durability evaluation system, we can dynamically determine the expected number of uses and washing frequency, and combine it with a carbon footprint accounting model to achieve accurate assessment of carbon emissions.
It achieves scientific, dynamic, and differentiated carbon footprint assessment, provides an assessment of the lower carbon footprint of high-quality outdoor jackets, incentivizes companies to optimize designs, guides consumers to choose low-carbon and durable products, and promotes sustainable development in the industry.
