What is the concept of eco-efficiency in the context of the Green Economy?

Eco-efficiency is a concept that lies at the heart of the Green Economy, emphasizing the need to achieve environmental sustainability while also maintaining economic viability. It focuses on producing more value (goods and services) with fewer resources (materials, energy, water) and minimizing negative environmental impacts throughout the entire lifecycle of products and processes. Eco-efficiency is about doing "more with less" and optimizing resource use to achieve sustainable economic growth. The concept was popularized by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) and is closely aligned with the principles of the Green Economy.
