Ecological
compatibility is a partial
objective for decision-making. It looks for the disturbances in nature and environment,
which will not be regenerated in reasonable times, and wants to minimize them.
Since not all effects will occur at every action, but the likelihood is high that any damage will happen, we have to think about risks and side-effects.
Together with
its twin eco-efficiency we can assess the ecological suitability that
is one sub-objective to find the optimal option. Parallel to the ecological suitability
we also should look at the economic and the social suitability. For more information
about systematics of decision-making, look at objectives and three-step
model of optimization.
