Extract

Material and energy flows in society are among the key determinants of ecological sustainability at local, regional and global scales. They are also relevant to social and economic sustainability. Analysis of material and energy flows can provide indicators and other information to inform policy and progress towards sustainability at local, regional, national and global scales.
