- The Sustainable Development Goals prioritize economic growth over sustainable resource use: a critical reflection on the SDGs from a socio-ecological perspective (2020, background): “These countries serve as best practice examples in many national environmental policies and fuel optimism towards reconciling economic and environmental goals (Ekins et al. 2016; Schandl et al. 2016).”
- A critical analysis of the impacts of COVID-19 on the global economy and ecosystems and opportunities for circular economy strategies (2020, background): “Against this backdrop, the search for an industrial economic model that satisfies the multiple roles of decoupling of economic growth from resource consumption, waste management and wealth creation, has heightened interests in concepts about circular economy (Ekins et al., 2016; MacArthur, 2013).”
- Growth in Environmental Footprints and Environmental Impacts Embodied in Trade: Resource Efficiency Indicators from EXIOBASE3 (2018, background): “Likewise, the International Resource Panel of the UNEP has recently shown that an increase in resource efficiency is key for meeting climate-change targets in a cost-effective manner (Ekins et al. 2016).”
- Transition Towards a Resource Efficient Circular Economy in Europe: Policy Lessons From the EU and the Member States (2017, background): “Global resource extraction has dramatically grown: From 1970 to 2010, annual global extraction of materials tripled, growing from, 22 billion to 70 billion tonnes, inter alia, driven by the rapid growth of emerging economies such as India and China (Ekins and Hughes, 2017).”
