'''Service cycle is a [[feature]] of [[Product group]] and [[product]]''' A '''service cycle''' describes everything behind an economic transaction, down to [[nature's services]], [[state services]] and other [[service economy]] elements. It goes below [[commodity]] and [[product]] relations where it can find out about them, and tries to include all impacts from every service stage: *[[extraction]] especially [[environmental impact]] and [[extinction]] and [[deforestation]] potential, e.g. [[tantallum]], [[charcoal]] *[[production]] especially [[labour]] *[[transport]] and other [[distribution]], especially energy use *[[retail]] considerations including displacement of [[local buying]] options, e.g. [[Wal-Mart]] *[[usage]], e.g. [[energy use]], [[emissions]] if applicable, e.g. [[automobile]], and does it help [[reduce]] or exaggerate other [[consumption]]? *[[re-use]] potential, e.g. [[resale value]], longevity, [[planned obsolescence]] *[[recycling]] and [[waste disposal]], e.g. [[biodegradeable]] *other [[comprehensive outcome]] elements of the service cycle as above ===A primitive example=== #[[Sun]] shines #Sunshine causes [[rainfall]] #[[Vegetation]] grows #[[Animal]] eats vegetation #[[Animal]] gets milked by [[farmer]] #Farmer drinks milk #Farmer takes a pee #The nutrients from the urine helps 3. This is the ''Service cycle'' of [[Milk]] in a primitive production setting. In a more advanced setting we would have makers of agricultural machines, transportation, vets, pharmaceuticals, electricity, diesel, milking robots, buildings and some other stuff to get [[milk]]
