Sufficiency in land use

Anne Wittig
Sufficiency focuses on changing living and consumption habits as a guideline for strong sustainability. This paper examines the applicability of sufficiency strategies to the use of land as a precious and finite resource. To this end, the causes and developments of land use in Germany are discussed, as well as their embedding in global interrelationships, and the special characteristics of land as a resource are highlighted in order to show which solutions sufficiency can offer. It will be shown that and to what extent a change in lifestyle habits and a more sufficiency-oriented way of living can make a decisive contribution to reducing land consumption, as well as which, above all, political conditions must be in place in order for sufficiency strategies to be effective for society as a whole.
