The concept of consumption corridors defines a space in which a good life for all, living now and in the future, is possible within planetary boundaries (Di Giulio...
Background Traceability of food products, ingredients and associated operations are important requirements for improving food safety and consumer confidence. Food traceability systems (FTSs) often suffer from inefficiency in...
Modern society requires large amounts of materials which lead to emissions of greenhouse gases. Effective climate policy should focus on not just energy efficiency but material efficiency as...
Global glass production grew to 150 million tonnes (Mt) in 2014, equating to approximately 21 kg per person. Producing this glass is energy intensive and contributes annual CO2 emissions...
Increased recycling and reuse rates are a central part of the objectives laid out by the COP21. Nonetheless, the practical implementation of what has been called the circular...
Michal Drewniok discusses the principles of reusing steel elements and encourages structural engineers to consider this option over designing with new material. Half of all steel is used...
Traceability of food products is both a legal and market requirement. Numerous studies have been performed in food traceability but there is no common, clear understanding of its...
Water availability analysis traditionally has involved understanding how much water enters and leaves a region and how much is used or stored each year. This mass balance of...
Over the last ten years, global demand for concrete has grown three-fold and for steel two-fold. Both are responsible for approximately 15% of global greenhouse gas emissions (GHG),...
