- Environment and natural resources
The UNITE Flagship, together with our colleagues at the FinnCERES flagship, kindly welcome you to this unique seminar in Brussels on 30 November. The seminar will be streamed online for all interested.
Online at 15.45–18.20 (CET)
Registration in the address lyyti.fi/reg/biobubble_online.
Our flagships will introduce the latest research and developments taking place in the circular forest bioeconomy and discuss the bio-based materials which are shaping our future.
In recent years, as Europe transitions to a greener future, these efforts have been complicated by persistent green-washing. However, if we look beyond the hype, the bioeconomy has the vast potential to reduce our fossil dependency, ensure our continent’s resilience, and solve several global sustainability challenges. How can we sustainably use natural resources while conserving biodiverse ecosystems? And how can science-based knowledge support policy and regulation?
The topics in the programme cover the whole value chain from forests and their management to latest hi-tech products made from sustainable, renewable wood fibres.
