Ecoeficiencia, producción y consumo
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2015) Quispe, Isabel
La ecoeficiencia es la producción de bienes y servicios a precios competitivos que satisfacen las necesidades humanas y mejoran la calidad de vida con un menor consumo de recursos y menores impactos ambientales; dicho de otra forma, se trata de producir más con menor impacto ambiental. Cuando se empieza a difundir este concepto, la mayoría de los empresarios pensaron que incrementarían los costos de sus productos y, en consecuencia, podrían dejar de ser competitivos, pero se equivocaron, porque en la actualidad hay empresas, mayormente transnacionales, que están incorporando esta noción en la gestión empresarial y obtienen como resultado la reducción de los costos de producción, incremento de utilidades y mitigación del impacto ambiental.

Recursos, producción y ambiente
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Instituto de la Naturaleza, Tierra y Energía (INTE-PUCP), 2022) Quispe, Isabel
The environment is in a difficult and complex situation where natural resources are decreasing to attend the needs of the population, because the resource replacement rate is lower than its consumption rate. The population is constantly growing, to date there are 7.8 billion inhabitants, and it is estimated at 8.5 billion inhabitants by 2030. They will require food, clothing, housing, services and others, that is, natural resources will be needed to be transformed and obtain goods and services. In this context, Peru is a megadiverse country and very rich in natural resources such as forest, hydro-biological, water, mining, hydrocarbon resources, soil, among others, which can become a pantry for the world. What is the situation of these resources today? It is necessary to include production systems to understand environmental problems, since to obtain goods and services, these systems consume resources and generate waste, effluents and / or emissions in their operations, impacting the environment. So, it is necessary to know how these systems have been developed. Were environmental criteria considered in decision making? To contribute to sustainability, avoiding or mitigating environmental impacts, it is necessary to make decisions using methodologies and tools with a more comprehensive approach such as, life cycle assessment, industrial ecology, circular economy, among others.
