Whilst previous chapters are focusing at detailed methodological questions of LCA – and thus provide small mosaic pieces –, this chapter is meant to give an impression of the whole mosaic. This chapter provides a broad overview of global challenges for agriculture, derived from the sustainability development goals (SDG) of the United Nations. Furthermore, it contains an overview of international initiatives towards sustainable agriculture and the origin of the term sustainability.
