Nachhaltiges Wirtschaften bedeutet, alle ökonomischen und ökologischen Kosten offen zu legen: den Geldschleier wegzuziehen, der uns allzu oft den Blick vernebelt. Das Wachstum unserer Wirtschaft wird sich auf lange Sicht nur fortsetzen, wenn wir die Bedeutung der Natur für unsere Lebensqualität einzuschätzen lernen. Peter Bartelmus stößt mit diesem Buch eine Diskussion zwischen Wissenschaftlern und Entscheidungsträgern an. Dieser Austausch ist dringend geboten, denn Ökonomen und Umweltwissenschaftler müssen gemeinsam den richtigen Weg zum wahren Wohlstand finden. Hier werden Konzepte vorgestellt und diskutiert, die die Nachhaltigkeit von Wachstum und Entwicklung sichern sollen. Ökologische, soziale, wirtschaftliche und politische Faktoren - sie alle haben eine entscheidende Bedeutung bei der Planung einer nachhaltigen Zukunft.

The contribution of natural resources and ecosystems to economic processes still remains under-assessed by market evaluation and productivity analysis. Following the historical lines of the classical productivity debate ranging from the French Physiocrats to early neoclassical growth theories, the productivity concept underwent a gradual transformation from its previous understanding based on natural resources and other environmental factors to its contemporary narrow notion. This paper claims that the course of the classical debate has shaped the scope of predominant contemporary analysis. Except for some very recent findings, multifactor productivity largely focusses on a two-factor model. Material Flow Analysis (MFA) provides a useful step for widening the measurement and notion of productivity.

Strategic Environmental Assessment aims to incorporate environmental and sustainability considerations into strategic decision making processes, such as the formulation of policies, plans and programmes. In order to be effective, the assessment must take the real decision making process as the departure point. Existing SEA approaches are frequently tailored after an EIA model conceived from a rational perspective on decision making. However, there are good reasons to assume that most strategic decision making processes are characterised by a bounded rationality. Furthermore, the predictability of environmental consequences generally becomes weaker at strategic levels than at the project level and complexity increases in terms of the numbers of actors involved in the decision. This paper examines various theoretical perspectives to decision making and discusses the implications for decision support in general and SEA in particular. The authors argue that the design of the SEA must be more sensitive to the real characteristics of the decision making context.
Das Zauberwort der Ökoeffizienz hat längst die Chefetagen der Wirtschaft erreicht und immer mehr Unternehmen sehen in der Aufgabe, aktiven Klimaschutz zu betreiben, eine Chance für neue Geschäftsfelder. Mit der Ausschreibung des Wuppertaler Energie- und Umweltpreises suchte das Wuppertal Institut umsetzbare Ideen aus dem Umwelt- und Energiebereich, die den Ressourcen- und Energieverbrauch deutlich reduzieren und so maßgeblich zur Verbesserung der Ökoeffizienz beitragen. Dieses Buch von Ernst Ulrich von Weizsäcker und Peter Hennicke (Herausgeber) stellt zwanzig Projekte vor, die von der Jury des Wettbewerbs prämiert oder belobigt wurden.
Saubere Geschäftsidee

International climate policy is one of the most fascinating issues in foreign policy, yet in recent years it has become one of the most contentious. The failure of the conference in The Hague revealed, among other things, strongunderlying rifts in the transatlantic relationship. As the self-acclaimed worldleader, the United States is not in a position to exert leadership in this vital area owing to a mixture of constitutional constraints and an ever-growing cultural dependence on fossil fuels such as oil and gas. It therefore falls to the European Union to take up this challenge. This will require careful coalition building with the rest of the world as well as confidence in the ability of Europe to develop a united position, to stick to that position and to translate the rules of the Kyoto Protocol into stringent domestic climate policy. The climate change regime is at a crossroads. At the resumed COP-6 con-ference, the Parties must decide whether to continue the process under theassumption ‘that global problems require global solutions’ or whether to turn to the more regional concept of "think globally, act locally". In either case, steering climate policy in this century on to a successful path will require the skills and dedication not only of natural scientists and technology developers, but also of those in the foreign policy community.

Umweltethik, politisch
(2001)
The paper examines the "Declaration of German Industry on Global Warming Prevention (DGWP)" in its updated version of 1996. The analysis draws on the findings of empirical case studies in the cement and glass sector as well as on a general analysis of the policy process including monitoring experience so far. The findings emphasise the weak impact of the agreement on the most important driving forces for industrial energy consumption. However, an improved design and a more stringent procedural framework would allow better advantage to be taken of the particular strengths of the approach. The paper concludes by making a number of recommendations that would improve the scope and quality of commitments, and would enhance learning effects during the course of the policy process.

This article provides a short account of the international climate negotiations that took place in Bonn from 16 to 27 July 2001. After the Sixth Conference of the Parties to the Framework Convention on Climate Change failed in November 2000, the Parties had decided to suspend the meeting. The ministers present at the resumed session successfully adopted the "Bonn Agreement to the Kyoto Protocol", a set of political compromises for the most contentious issues left open by the Kyoto Protocol. Although many details had been transferred to the Seventh Conference of the Parties, November 2001 in Marrakesh, Morocco, the Bonn Agreement already paved the way for ratification of the Kyoto Protocol and its entry into force. The Marrakesh Accord adopted on 10 November 2001 transforms, with a few exceptions, this political agreement into bindinglegal text.
