Hi Mahinsasa. This is a great simple video explained very well. I have been trying to learn OpenLCA from their channel but couldn't follow it well. Appreciate your effort and kudos to your work and effort into making this. will you be posting Part 2 of this video soon? Also by any chance, Will you be making an entire video from cradle to grave of a product ? If you plan on starting an online training platform for OpenLCA, I will be the first one to enroll hahaha.. Looking forward to your next OpenLCA video.
