Quantifying overconsumption: Deriving safe and equitable benchmarks to evaluate the environmental footprints of Germany's bioeconomy
The transition to a sustainable bioeconomy joins socio-economic and environmental goals. Getting there requires monitoring national consumption levels in relation to sustainability metrics. While substituting biomass for fossil and mineral resources can lead to win-wins, there is also a risk that if done the wrong way, impacts could accumulate at a global scale to push planetary systems beyond their boundaries and exacerbate vulnerability and inj…
Elder Abuse Identification by an Australian Health Service: A Five-Year, Social-Work Audit
For hospitals and other health-care services, identifying older people experiencing abuse remains a challenge. Social workers at St Vincent’s Hospital Melbourne (SVHM) used a clinical data mining approach to retrospectively audit electronic medical records containing 466 episodes of care over a five-year period where elder abuse was identified based on a system of alerts. The findings highlight key characteristics of the vulnerable older persons,…
A Policy Mix for Resource Efficiency in the EU: Key Instruments, Challenges and Research Needs
European Timber Consumption: Developing a Method to Account for Timber Flows and the EU's Global Forest Footprint
Toward a systemic monitoring of the European bioeconomy: Gaps, needs and the integration of sustainability indicators and targets for global land use
The land footprint of the EU bioeconomy: Monitoring tools, gaps and needs
Living within the safe operating space: A vision for a resource efficient Europe
A desirable future critically depends on our ability to ensure the supply of key resources while simultaneously respecting planetary boundaries. This paper looks at the potential implications of living within the “safe operating space” for people, business and the economy. It develops a positive vision of the future based on three pillars: a safe and fair use of global resources, a sustainable society, and a transformed economy. We review and bui…
