Tiivistelmä: | The author argues that eco-efficiency is fundamentally disruptive when promoted as a universal prescription for environmental policy. Eco-efficiency runs against the cognitive and institutional bases of sustainable human-environmental interaction. At the cognitive level, eco-efficiency assumes that an individual's concern for the environment can be decoupled from his or her material dependency on ecosystem services. At the collective level, eco-efficiency builds upon decoupling environmental governance from the local socio-economic and cultural context. The author states that the criterion for adopting eco-efficiency should be the extent to which it promotes the recoupling of human perception of environmental issues with human action on environment. |
