Insight into environmental impacts of beer
Beer production plays an important role in global beverage consumption, with the Czech Republic leading in beer consumption per capita. Despite several international studies, limited research has examined the environmental footprint of Czech breweries and malt houses. This study addresses this gap by conducting a life cycle assessment of beer production across five differently sized Czech breweries and five malt houses. The analysis follows a cra…
Global employment and skill level requirements for ‘Post-Carbon Europe’
Potential net primary production footprint of agriculture
Agriculture is one of the most important sources of biomass for human society but increasingly contributes to anthropogenic degradation of ecosystems through negative impacts on biodiversity, ecosystem integrity, climate change, and ecosystem services. Here we estimate NPP pot agricultural footprint, that is, the level of appropriation of potential net primary production (NPP pot ) by global cropland and human‐made pastures from the consumer resp…

Economy‐wide Material Flow Indicators on a Sectoral Level and Strategies for Decreasing Material Inputs of Sectors
The article presents a method for the calculation of selected economy‐wide material flow indicators (namely, direct material input [DMI] and raw material input [RMI]) for economic sectors. Whereas sectoral DMI was calculated using direct data from statistics, we applied a concept of total flows and a hybrid input‐output life cycle assessment method to calculate sectoral RMI. We calculated the indicators for the Czech Republic for 2000–2011. We ar…
Global Sustainability Accounting—Developing Exiobase for Multi-Regional Footprint Analysis
Measuring progress towards sustainable development requires appropriate frameworks and databases. The System of Environmental-Economic Accounts (SEEA) is undergoing continuous refinement with these objectives in mind. In SEEA, there is a need for databases to encompass the global dimension of societal metabolism. In this paper, we focus on the latest effort to construct a global multi-regional input−output database (EXIOBASE) with a focus on envi…
Ecological footprint of nations
The importance of raw material equivalents in economy-wide material flow accounting and its policy dimension
Affluence drives the global displacement of land use
Increasing affluence is often postulated as a main driver for the human footprint on biologically productive areas, identified among the main causes of biodiversity loss, but causal relationships are obscured by international trade. Here, we trace the use of land and ocean area through international supply chains to final consumption, modeling agricultural, food, and forestry products on a high level of resolution while also including the land re…
Carbon, Land, and Water Footprint Accounts for the European Union
A nation's consumption of goods and services causes various environmental pressures all over the world due to international trade. We use a multiregional input-output model to assess three kinds of environmental footprints for the member states of the European Union. Footprints are indicators that take the consumer responsibility approach to account for the total direct and indirect effects of a product or consumption activity. We quantify the to…

Structural Decomposition Analysis of Raw Material Consumption
Material Flow Indicators in the Czech Republic in Light of the Accession to the European Union
This article deals with the economy‐wide material flows in the Czech Republic in 1990–2006. It presents in brief the overall trends of the material flow indicators in 1990–2002. The major part of the article is focused on the years 2002–2006, which immediately preceded and followed the accession of the Czech Republic to the European Union in 2004. It is shown that this accession had quite a significant impact on the volume and character of the ma…
Assessing Socioeconomic Metabolism Through Hybrid Life Cycle Assessment
This article applies a combined input−output and life cycle inventory (LCI) method to the calculation of emissions and material requirements of the Czech economy in 2003. The main focus is on materials and emissions embodied in the international trade of the Czech Republic. Emissions and material extraction avoided due to imports are calculated according to an input−output approach that assumes the same production technology for imports as for do…
