\u201cLinking ecology and economy is one of the most important targets of our times. Many ecological approaches lack economical practicability. And with the economically cheapest solutions, ecological aspects are often neglected. We examine if and under which conditions this link between these sometimes contrary targets can be achieved \u2013 for new products as well as for already realized use cases. DFGE focuses on facts and proposals for their interpretation. Opinions and political assessments are part of the clients\u2019 tasks.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/q>
