The Material Stock–Flow–Service Nexus: A New Approach for Tackling the Decoupling Conundrum (2017, background): “, materials/GDP), hence stocks played no important role in the eco-efficiency debate, except where stocks such as population or area are used to compare flows in different countries by calculating flows per capita or per unit area [14,70,149].”
Policies for transitioning towards a circular economy: Expectations from the European Union (EU) (2020, background): “Other studies about CE transition through resource efficiency include a focus on material use in the Asia–Pacific region (Schandl and West, 2010), extended producer responsibility as a means to delegate power and responsibility to industry (Massarutto, 2014), public acceptability of the EU-based pro”
Global Patterns of Material Flows and their Socio-Economic and Environmental Implications: A MFA Study on All Countries World-Wide from 1980 to 2009 (2014, background): “The DMC indicator is also widely available outside Europe, including for the OECD countries [20], the Asian and Pacific region [21–23], Latin America [24–26] and Africa [27].”
Circular Economy: Questions for Responsible Minerals, Additive Manufacturing and Recycling of Metals (2014, background): “Resource intensity (kg used per $GDP) in the Asia-Pacific is also rising, relative to the rest of the world [41].”
Assessing global resource use : a systems approach to resource efficiency and pollution reduction (2018, background): “Material productivity is seen as an important feature of managing natural resources sustainably, and yet the amount of economic value that we can extract from every kilogram of material and every megajoule (MJ)of energy has been decreasing or stagnant since about the year 2000 (Schandl and West, 201”
The material footprint of nations (2013, background): “This confirms the very strong link found previously (24) between growth in building materials, ores, and fossil fuels use and economic growth in most of developing Asia, most notably in China.”
Material Flow Accounting: Measuring Global Material Use for Sustainable Development (2017, background): “The significance of these factors, however, varies by world region, development phase, and also by material type (47, 92, 100, 111).”
