Definition
- Industrial ecology is a field of study concerned with analyzing the interactions between humans and the environment that takes a broad, long-range view to the analysis of industrial systems and views them in a manner analogous to an ecosystem. It draws from both systems engineering and ecological principles, and is particularly useful in addressing concerns such as sustainability at a systems level.
