Abstract

In this paper, the indicators for sustainable energy development derived recently by several international organizations and national teams are reviewed, in the light of a negentropic perspective related to the non-material human needs.
Specifically, indicators for efficient use of mental resources and capacities (in addition to energy and material ones) are derived, an approach which is lacking in the present lists of sustainability indicators. As a result, some additional indicators concerning organizational attention deficit, occupational stress, corruption pressure and brain-drain are introduced and discussed.

This could be considered as another manifestation of overcoming the traditional mind/matter separation, expressed by an old play on words: "What is mind?" / "No matter" / "What is matter?" / "Never mind" (Jibu and Yashue 1995).
