The report brings together the best available data, modelling and assessments to analyze trends, impacts and distributional effects of resource use. It shows how demand for resources is expected to continue increasing in the coming decades.

The report also describes the potential to turn negative trends around and put humanity on a trajectory towards sustainability. With EMAS you can be part of the solution!
