So why focus on the impact Brexit will have on the bioeconomy? The answer is quite simple: it is difficult to find another area in the field of research and technological development, in innovation and in future European transnational cooperation that is more indicative to serve as a showcase of the dire consequences of what was decided on 23 June. ... Read >> The rebirth of eco-local materials Stone, earth, wood, straw, reeds & Co by Dominique Gauzin-Müller The innovative use of vernacular materials (wood, straw and other plant materials, earth, stone) is becoming a common practice both in residential buildings and in public works and large building complexes.

Read >> Biomasses can make the difference by Maurizio Cocchi It is a unique overview of the state of affairs in the biomass sector - and their fundamental role in the transition to a low-emission economy - that emerged from the 24th European Biomass Conference and Exhibition in Amsterdam (Eubce 2016 - European Biomass Conference and Exhibition) . ... Read >> EDITORIAL The fair trade shopper of Antonio Cianciullo Driven by the increase in social imbalances, xenophobia is advancing. The fear of the other - unknown, different, threatening - increases despite the statistics that see most of the acts of violence, starting with sexual violence, coming from those who are historically close to us. And the temptation to erect walls, as shown by the referendum of 23 June in Great Britain, is appearing in places hitherto unsuspected. The reports that we publish in this issue of Renewable Matter on the issue of plastic bags help to look at the intertwining between environmental and social issues with fresh eyes. The association between shopper and racial prejudice can appear daring. But the technological frontiers of compostable plastic are very advanced and could suggest that environmental defense tools are the prerogative of the richest countries: ecology as another barrier between the northern and southern shores of the Mediterranean.

Read >> ANNOUNCEMENTS Leadership in Green Building Leadership in Green Building collects a selection of the most representative LEED certified buildings of our country. It also proposes an unprecedented path in Italian architecture, which in the last decade has brought sustainability into practice by providing concrete answers to a constantly growing demand for quality. Although some of the works presented here are very well known, their environmental and energy characteristics are often little known. These values are instead at the heart of the various LEED certification protocols, and represent the fundamental criteria with which the architectures were analyzed. Read >> ANNOUNCEMENTS What is the circular economy Although there is a lot of talk about it, few are clear about what the circular economy really is. It may be because it is still a young concept, it may be because it is an "umbrella" under which very different knowledge and practices such as the bioeconomy, the sharing economy, remanufacturing, biomimicry or advanced waste management systems can fall. In this book, the authors reconstruct the most recent evolution and developments of the circular economy, “an industrial economy that is conceptually regenerative and reproduces nature in actively improving and optimizing the systems through which it operates”.
