Resources indicators

The growing consumption of goods is linked inseparably to the growing consumption of natural resources. In production processes mineral and metallic resources should be utilised in such a way that, when they have reached the end of their service life, they can be recovered and returned to the economic cycle. Cultivated biomass (wood, paper) can be recovered in a cascade of uses, and utilised to generate energy as the final stage of the cascade.
