INTRODUCTION Assessing en i onmen al impac s has adi ionally ocused on measu ing and modeling he nega i e e ec s ha p oduc s, se ices, and companies cause o he en i onmen . In many o ganiza ions, i is al eady common o assess esou ce use o emissions caused as a esul o hei ac i i ies. These assessmen p ac ices a e ho oughly guided wi h s anda ds es ablished o li e cycle assessmen (LCA) (ISO 14040, 2006; ISO 14044, 2006), ca bon oo p in (ISO, 14067, 2018) and wa e oo p in (ISO 14046, 2014). Many companies, especially in de eloped coun ies, al eady ha e a dep h o en i onmen al know-how and so succeed in conduc ing hei ope a ions wi h e icien esou ce use and p oducing a minimum amoun o emissions and was e. Indeed, hese companies migh e en pu sue a business concep ha is based on p o iding p oduc s, se ices o echnologies ha educe he en i onmen al impac s o hei cus ome s. Howe e , hese clean ech o on unne companies a e lacking a ecognized me hod o calcula ing and communica ing he en i onmen al bene i s o hei ac ions. Scien is s ha e sugges ed me hods o measu ing he posi i e en i onmen al impac s o p oduc sys ems. Čuček e al. (2012) in oduced he concep o o al en i onmen al oo p in which conside s a (p oduc ) sys em’s o al e ec s on he en i onmen by summing he di ec oo p in – he bu dening o he en i onmen , and he indi ec oo p in , he unbu dening o he en i onmen . The bene icial unbu dening e ec s in he sys em can esul om subs i u ing ha m ul p oduc s o benign p oduc s, such as subs i u ing ossil uels o enewable uels (Čuček e al., 2012) o op ing o mo e o less impac ul aw ma e ials (K a anja and Čuček, 2013). The idea o indi ec unbu dening e ec s has been u he applied and de eloped by scien is s. K a anja and Čuček (2013) ha e in eg a ed unbu dening e ec s in o mul i-objec i e op imiza ion me hods by in oducing he ela i e o al sus ainabili y index ha assesses he combined en i onmen al, social and economic sus ainabili y o a (p oduc ) sys em. How and Lam (2017; 2018) ha e applied he unbu dening e ec s in a p incipal componen analysis o assess and op imize he sus ainabili y pe o mance o p oduc sys ems. G een ma ke ing li e a u e has iden i ied ha communica ing he posi i e impac s o p oduc s and se ices is a challenge. To ackle c edibili y challenges, Rami ez e al. (2014) ecommends mo e consis en communica ion o a sus ainable p oduc ’s economic bene i s and posi i e en i onmen al impac s. The esea ch by C onin e al. (2011) ein o ces he pe cep ion ha he communica ion o a p oduc ’s en i onmen al bene i s is a delica e issue, as g een ma ke ing s a egies ha e o a oid g eenwashing while comba ing cus ome con usion and cynicism. Fu he mo e, sus ainabili y-o ien ed cus ome s can be a signi ican ma ke o some companies (Pa ala e al., 2016). Access o his ma ke equi es igo ous demons a ion and communica ion o expec ed sus ainabili y bene i s o p oduc and se ice o e ings. The need o communica ing posi i e en i onmen al impac s has been iden i ied by esea che s, e.g. by Pihkola e al. (2010), Tynkkynen, and Be ninge (2017). Bjø n and Hauschild (2013) emphasize he need o in oduce posi i e p oduc a ibu es in LCA as well as he po en ial o de eloping LCA and eco-e iciency app oaches owa ds being able o p o ide inpu o posi i e ma ke ing and communica ion in he indus y sec o . Se e al au ho s emphasize he need o changing he business mindse om being ocused on educing nega i e impac s o enhancing posi i e ones. Dyllick and Hocke s (2002) in oduce his idea, while Young and Tilley (2006) and Dyllick and Mu (2016) explo e he ideas o e iciency and e ec i eness. Conside ing e ec i eness, Dyllick and Mu (2016) discuss he c ea ion o a “posi i e oo p in ” o e he whole li e cycle o a p oduc , as a s ep o wa d in de eloping sus ainable business, in con as o me ely pu suing e iciency, i.e. minimizing oo p in (usually on a business economics basis). McDonough and B aunga (2002a) e e o he iple bo om line as a business app oach ha wo ks o balance economic, ecological, and social sus ainabili y goals wi h a ocus on minimizing nega i e impac s. Fu he mo e, hey sugges a new concep , iple op line, which is abou iden i ying new business oppo uni ies by c ea ing posi i e bene icial impac s, o a “bene icial ecological oo p in ” (McDonough and B aunga , 2002a). Dyllick and Ros (2017) s a e ha companies a e mo e likely o conside hei social impac s om a posi i e pe spec i e, o example, he c ea ion o jobs and he well-being o hei employees, whe eas hey judge en i onmen al impac s om a nega i e pe spec i e. Dyllick and Ros (2017) mo e he sus ainabili y discussion on om a company le el o p oduc le el, s a ing ha conside ing and op imizing he posi i e impac s o p oduc s (handp in ) ins ead o ocusing on minimizing hei nega i e oo p in s is a s ep owa d de eloping uly sus ainable 3 p oduc s. Rega ding he sus ainabili y assessmen o p oduc s, Sala e al. (2013) conclude ha li e cycle-based me hodologies should be b oadened om a oiding nega i e impac s o also p oac i ely enhancing posi i e impac s. Whe eas he ‘ oo p in ’ concep is applied o e e o nega i e en i onmen al impac s, ‘handp in ’ is less well-known bu can be used o e e o he posi i e impac s. This handp in concep was i s launched in 2007 by UNESCO, when i was de e mined as a measu e o Educa ion o Sus ainable De elopmen ac ion, aiming o dec ease he human oo p in (Handp in Ac ion Towa d Sus ainabili y, n.d.). Bieme e al., (2013) and No is (2015) ha e emphasized he en i onmen al app oach o handp in ing. Whe eas he concep o a oo p in is app oached by looking o educe i s e ec s close o ze o, wi h a handp in he e is no limi o he good ha can be achie ed (Bieme e al., 2013). In he ongoing Ge man Handp in p ojec (Handabd uck), measu emen , e alua ion, and communica ion ools o he ecological, economic and social impac s o p oduc s a e being c ea ed (Beckmann, 2017).

In he scope o Handp in -Based Ne Posi i e Assessmen , bo h he en i onmen al and social impac s o p oduc s and ac ions a e add essed (No is, 2013). In he p e ious me hods he educ ion in an o ganiza ion’s oo p in is conside ed o be pa o a Handp in . As No is (2015) and Beckmann e al. (2017) include he educ ion o one’s own emissions e.g. in he p oduc ion phase as one means o c ea e handp in , i can be a gued ha his o e laps wi h educing hei own oo p in . The handp in app oaches o Bieme e al., (2013) and No is (2015) emphasize he posi i e ein o cemen loop o doing good. They accen ha posi i e ac ion p omo es o he posi i e ac ions, e.g. in e ms o people educa ing each o he ega ding acc ued knowledge. Al hough his is ue in many cases, i is ha d o p o e and e en ha de o measu e and alloca e o someone’s c edi . Bieme e al., (2013) also include he possibili y o c ea ing handp in s h ough buying ca bon o se s. Indus ies and companies ha e al eady ecognized he need o communica e he en i onmen al bene i o hei p oduc s o e o he s in he ma ke . Indus y sec o s in chemis y (ICCA and WBCSD, 2013) as well as in ICT (GeSI, Global e-Sus ainabili y Ini ia e) ha e ad anced his issue om hei own poin o iew. The chemical sec o has in oduced indus y- ela ed guidance (ICCA and WBCSD, 2013) wi h guidelines o calcula ing and epo ing a oided emissions a e compiled. Companies like Ou o ec (Ou o ec, 2015) ha e launched hei own ini ia i es o handp in s. The handp in concep has eme ged as a esponse o he demand o a me hod o quan i y he posi i e impac s o a p oduc . Howe e , he handp in concep has been simul aneously de eloped by mul iple esea che s and indus ies.

METHODS The de elopmen o he ca bon handp in app oach has been based on h ee di e en means.

We ha e also closely explo ed he guidance and s anda ds gi en o ca bon oo p in calcula ion (ISO 14067, 2013; WBCSD and WRI, 2004) and LCA (ISO 14040, 2006; ISO 14044, 2006), because we aim o base he ca bon handp in app oach on he LCA guidelines app o ed by he scien i ic communi y as consis en ly as possible.
