Towards a low carbon society : setting targets for a reduction of global resource use

authors: Marina Fischer-Kowalski; Fridolin Krausmann; Julia K. Steinberger; Robert U. Ayres

We focus on three questions: one, what have been the quantitative dynamics and the main drivers of the global use of natural resources (energy and materials) in the past century? Two, how will these trends continue over the next decades, and what would be more sustainable scenarios? In other words, what is the size of the challenge? Three: how can policy interventions into resource use be argued and justified?
