The demands placed on land, water, energy and other natural
resources are exacerbated as the world population continues to
increase together with the expectations of economic growth. This,
combined with concerns over environmental change, presents a set of
scientific, policy and management issues that are critical for
sustainability. Resource Accounting for Sustainability Assessment:
The nexus between energy, food, water and land use offers an
approach for multi-scale, integrated assessment of this nexus. It
presents a comprehensive and original method of resource accounting
for integrated sustainability assessments. The approach is
illustrated with three detailed case studies: the islands of
Mauritius, the Indian state of Punjab, and the energy economy of
South Africa. The relationships between flows of goods, services
and materials in these case studies offer valuable insights. The
book provides a much needed quality control on the information used
in deliberative processes about policy and planning activities.
This innovative book will be of interest to researchers, students
and practitioners in the fields of sustainability science,
international development, industrial ecology, sustainable resource
management, geography and ecological economics.
