Ich muss bei der #DHL #Onlinefrankierung jedes mal schmunzeln, wenn ich diese kostenlose (+0,00€) Optione sehe. Dafür, dass mein Paket einen Tag länger unterwegs ist mit dem #Bahntransport nichts zahlen zu müssen. Check! 🎉
Ich verstehe den Hintergrund mit der CO2 #Einsparung. Aber dann sollte man es doch eher so vermarkten, dass alle Pakete um Betrag X teurer werden und man diesen Betrag X sparen kann wenn man dann den Bahntransport wählt (+1Tag) ?
@CelloMomOnCars @Streetsweeper @breadandcircuses fully agree, the technology to convert waste to useful materials exists (P&G aka Procter and Gamble got started on fat from the pig slaughter houses in Cincinnati). The question is if there is enough waste to meet the demand, while leaving enough natural areas to support the regional biodiversity. (If we are talking about adding biofuel for air travel and ocean freight, pretty sure the answer is "No".)
And a big part of the equation is our rate of consumption. The work on Planetary Boundaries ( https://www.stockholmresilience.org/research/planetary-boundaries.html) and Doughnut Economics (https://www.kateraworth.com/doughnut/) do a nice job of framing the questions we need to ask and problems we need to be prepared to solve.

RT @esanyemengual: ♻️The #ConsumptionFootprint is part of the new monitoring framework for the #CircularEconomy
The indicator can be explored in three dimensions:
- Index (from 2010)
- Per capita values
- Against #PlanetaryBoundaries

This report provides an overview of the LCA applied to assessing environmental impacts of production and consumption at the EU and Member State levels as a basis to support several policies and the assessment of their impacts and benefits. The content builds from the results of the “Application of the consumption footprint indicators in policy analysis” (AA Consumption Footprint) project , aimed at further develop and apply the set of indicators defined and calculated in the context of the LC-IND2 project , namely the Consumption Footprint and the Domestic Footprint. The EU-27 can be considered a “net importer of environmental impacts”. This implies that the Consumption Footprint (overall impacts related to consumption of good and services) is higher than the Domestic Footprint (impacts generated in the EU-27 area). Between 2010 and 2018, domestic environmental impacts in EU-27 have decreased (-12% as weighted score) while GDP has increased of 23%, showing an absolute decoupling. Yet accounting for trade, a more limited relative decoupling is observed for the Consumption Footprint (increase by 5%, relative decoupling). Moreover, a number of impacts cannot be fully captured so far, indicating the need of including in future more aspects to depict comprehensively the decoupling. Results show that the environmental impact of the consumption of an average EU citizen is outside the safe operating space for humanity for several impacts, namely climate change, particulate matter, freshwater ecotoxicity.
