| The Industrial Ecology Agenda The principal objective of Industrial Ecology is to reorganize the industrial system (including all aspects of human activity) so that it evolves towards a mode of operation that is compatible with the biosphere and is sustainable over the long-term. The strategy for implementing the concepts of Industrial Ecology is often referred to as eco-restructuring and can be described in terms of four main elements: • Optimizing the use of resources • Closing material loops and minimizing emissions • Dematerializing activities • Reducing and eliminating the dependence on non-renewable sources of energy |
