Eco-Efficiency Indicators for Urban Transport
This paper focuses on urban passenger transport eco-efficiency, which can be defined as the production of maximum benefits to society while minimising environmental impacts from urban transport’s inputs of energy and materials. Researchers have intensively studied transport’s varied environmental impacts, particularly through Life Cycle Assessment; this paper argues that primary transport energ...

The world is now facing difficulties such as climate change, energy consumption and economic crisis and the green growth is commonly used as a solution to overcome that difficulties. To achieve the green growth eco-efficiency is a very important key. Studies on eco-efficiency have been done by others using financial value of product which cannot show the real value of the product. In this study...
متن کاملSustainable Agricultural Development – Concepts, Principles, Eco-efficiency, Eco-equity, Eco-conditioning
* E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Starting with the reform of 1999 (named Agenda 2000), the Common Agricultural Policy has two main directions: market policy and sustainable development of rural zones. Since 2003, the environmental aspects were better integrated into the agricultural policy that included new measures or improvements of the existing ones, in order to promote the environment p...
متن کاملEco-Efficiency and its Role in Industrial Transformation
The ecological efficiency of industrial production has become the focus of a range of innovative and promising research and implementation activities. Eco-efficiency promises to achieve a less polluted environment at lower costs than pollution control and ensure human well-being with less detrimental effects than adaptation and remediation. At the same time, it is less radical and therefore off...
متن کاملTesting for Environmental Kuznets Curve in the EU Agricultural Sector through an Eco-(in)Efficiency Index
Studies on agricultural production practices advance within international literature and new methods are proposed in order to assess the agricultural sustainability, either at farm or macro level. The present paper builds on these advancements and develops a synthetic Eco-(in)efficiency index by employing a directional distance function—data envelopment analysis (DEA) model. This index is used ...
