Assessing global resource use and greenhouse emissions to 2050, with ambitious resource efficiency and climate mitigation policies (2017, methodology): “Material flow indicators follow the methodological guidelines provided by the European Statistical Office (EUROSTAT 2013) and the OECD, and are consistent with the international standards for national and global material flow accounting (Fischer-Kowalski et al. 2011).”
Cropland area embodied in international trade: Contradictory results from different approaches (2014, background): “While nations generally do not set policy goals with regard to their (physical) trade balance, resource productivity (measured as GDP generated per unit of resource load) is becoming a relevant performance indicator (European Commission, 2011; Fischer-Kowalski and Swilling, 2011).”
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): “In addition, expected positive effects brought about by de-coupling of economic growth from resource use and its related environmental impacts led to an increasing importance of resource efficiency [13].”
