Life Cycle Analysis: Part 1
For my LCA I choose to look at the life of a golf ball. Golf balls are comprised of rubber,plastic, and polyurethane. The lifespan of a golf ball is estimated to be from 2 months to a year. Most golf balls are lost either in shrubbery or water. Once these old balls are found they can be recycled and once again reused. Unfortunately if not found, golf balls take a while to biodegrade because of their composition.

Wetlands capture and retain rainfall, and prevent valuable sediments from being washed into lakes and rivers. They add moisture to the atmosphere, which falls as rain and cools the environment. Despite their value to humanity, half the world's wetlands have been lost, with most of the destruction taking place over the past 50 years.
