Abstract

Due to the rising demand for natural resources and a decreasing supply, an efficient resource use is necessary. To evaluate resource efficiency, especially at the enterprise level, indicators are needed. In this paper, a literature review on resource efficiency indicators in terms of life cycle assessment has been conducted. As a result, we developed a framework for a systematization of existing resource use indicators.
