Description The Carbon footprint (CF) or Carbon footprint labels (CFL) of a product reveals the CO2 released during its all product lifecycle. And, the CF of products informs customers about the amount of CO2 released during this product lifecycle and may favor products with lower emissions and release the ecological impact in the future. This study concerns about the topics of CF in the manufacturing stage of a product lifecycle, because the CO2 released in the manufacturing stage has a majority of CF. Basically, an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system which has been a common management system in a company provides plentiful data to evaluate the CF in manufacturing stage of a product; hence, an integration model of CF and ERP is developed in this study. Furthermore, a video capture card produced by a plant in Taiwan is utilized to illustrate the application of the proposed model.
