Operating SIA - Resource efficiency
Outline
A growing population and an increased industrialisation are the reasons for worldwide accelerated resource consumption. In many countries, in particular in emerging economies, industrial areas are the motor of industrialisation and contribute significantly to the consumption of resources. Knowing that the natural resources of the world are limited solutions, have to be found to decouple economic growth from resource consumption. Measures of resource efficiency in industrial areas are an important step to lower resource consumption.
