| Synopsis: |
Each human being in Germany needs more than 1000 t of mineral resources in their life-time (1.6 kg per hour) to cover their basic daily needs for housing, food, energy, communication or transport. Our industrial world lives with and off natural resources. High-tech products, such as computers, are no exception. People assume that the market will supply all the products they require in sufficient quantities and the quality they need, at low prices, when and where they need them. Consumption will grow in line with the population and standards of living. The solution lies in produce with less material and energy but better final properties, or in renewable and recyclable resources. We must focus more on resources, water and soil, which form the basis of our daily lives. |
