Historically, human progress has developed hand in hand with the resources consumed. Technological advancements have considerably broadened the availability of resources and their efficient deployment, especially over the course of the last century. In turn, however, the population has grown significantly, as has the resource demand per capita, and thus overall resource consumption.
Today, there is overwhelming evidence that current rates of resource consumption have already resulted in negative and potentially irreversible impacts on the planet, a pattern that is set to continue. Overshoot of the planetary boundaries is, among other things, causing climate change and biodiversity loss and will ultimately halt and reverse human progress. A phase-out of the use of fossil resources, a circular use of minerals/materials, and the utilisation of regenerative/renewable resources and energy a
