The major responsibility for water resource stress developed in PRB is the agricultural sector, as irrigation water consumption accounts approximately for 95% of the total water consumption (Koutsoyiannis and Mimikou 1996; Alexandridis et al. 2014).
Beer consumption accounted for 70percentt of Japan's alcohol consumption in 1989.
At the same time such programmes may provide the structure for pursing the aims of decoupling wealth and resource consumption (taking into account the resource nexus, i.e. the linkage between different natural resources), ensuring supply security (food, raw materials, etc).
With increasing resource scarcity and environmental impacts resulting from inefficient resource utilisation, accounting for resource consumption along the life cycle of a product or service becomes critical for designing production consumption systems.
The accounting service retrieves the metering data, computes resource consumption from the data using its accounting model and generates accounting data that is needed by the billing service to calculate the billing data.
We evaluate the societal impacts of LNG within a cost benefit framework, taking into account resource consumption, human health impacts related to air quality, and climate damage.
In this way countries may account for their resource consumption to understand whether they are contributing to an overuse of global resources as a nation.
To account for higher resource consumption due to differences in teaching activities, we included a variable (TEACHING) for the training activities of non-medical staff.
Further, patients with a certain diagnosis such as schizophrenia may have very different psychopathology and social constraints, which may account for the resource consumption but is not considered in the diagnosis.
Finally, data on healthcare resource consumption should be taken into account.
It is argued that both labour and financial costs can be properly linked to an equivalent resource consumption through a back-to-resource accounting procedure that expresses the total exergy consumption required to "generate" one man-hour of work or one monetary unit of currency circulation.
