Meeting European demands for food, water, energy and housing exerts major pressures on the environment, indirectly affecting human health and well-being. To reduce the impact of Europe's resource use, this assessment from the European Environment Agency (EEA) reflects on integrating different policy areas and improved spatial planning.

The report aims to support implementation of the European Union's 7th Environmental Action Programme (7th EAP), which was officially signed by policymakers on 20 November 2013, and which sets the long-term objectives of environmental policymaking in the EU. Entitled 'Living well, within the limits of our planet', it puts a particular focus on ensuring a healthy environment for human well-being.
