Ongoing Work and Partnerships
• Scenario development – Multi-disciplinary
– Stakeholder involvement
• Close phosphorus cycle: waste-input output
• More detailed and compreshensive global input-output datasets
• Utilizing detailed LCA technologies in WTM framework
• Changing embodied phosphorus content in diets
