Conference: Towards a Sustainable Bioeconomy - Innovative Methods and Solutions for the Agriculture and Forest Sectors
Barecelona, Spain
21-23 October 2015
The conference included six scientific sessions:
- Transition towards bioeconomy: changing production systems and consumption patterns
- Innovative climate change mitigation strategies for the forest-based sector
- Assessing sustainability in forestry, agriculture and related bioenergy systems
- Optimal forest operations for a sustainable biomass supply
- Environmental challenges for the bioeconomy
- Economic and social challenges for the bioeconomy
The Sciency-Policy-Practice interaction day (22 Oct) focused on the topic Cascade use of biomass.
Is cascading use of biomass a superior concept in the context of a sustainable bioeconomy? Can we prove it is beneficial for land managers, industry and society? Are there winners and losers? What are the drivers or barriers to cascade use? Do we need additional rules and regulations? These are some of the questions to be discussed in a series of interactive sessions – see more details in the day’s programme.
