According to the UN Environment Programme[1], the clothing and textile industry is responsible for around 10% of the world’s GHG emissions and 20% of global wastewater. Making a shift towards an ecological fashion system is a priority in the fight against climate change. These startups are working on much needed, innovative ways to reduce emissions in the sector.

How to facilitate the transition to sustainability, access to green innovation and how to strengthen climate action?

Mercalli (Turin, 1966), climatologist, master in mountain sciences at the Université de Savoie-Mont-Blanc, director of the Nimbus magazine, presides the Società Meteorologica Italiana, a national association founded in 1865. He deals with research on climates and alpine glaciers, teaches environmental sustainability in different schools and universities in Italy…

With environmental issues negatively progressing by the day, companies are starting to rethink their production patterns so as to eliminate waste and to achieve the continual use of resources. For a more circular economy to become a reality, new and innovative ways have to be developed to enable companies to move away from a linear production model.

It is well known that the construction sector has harmful consequences for the environment, contributing to climate change, air and water pollution, and waste dumping. To change this trend, it is necessary to find new alternatives that replace conventional building materials in innovative and more sustainable ways.

When Jeremy Rifkin wrote the The hydrogen economy book in 2002, very few people were ready to bet that his vision would become the new economic strategy of Europe one day.

The debate on the climate crisis and the related policy response is full of terms and notions that derive from the climate science. Such terms, however, are widely used by businesses, governments and financial institutions to communicate climate targets and actions to mitigate and adapt to climate change

It’s no secret that plastic pollution is one of the most pressing environmental problems caused by human activity. Some startups are developing some disruptive plastic alternatives.

Our data show CleanTech has become a major industry trend in Europe over the past years.

Agreements must be respected, this is the meaning of one of the most famous Latin phrases. What might it mean today in the context of the climate crisis?

We are pleased to present a new project, which arose for the benefit of those who work for a sustainable economy, to be well-informed on essential and strategic information. On this webpage we’ll be able to exchange information and messages on sustainability, innovation and climate action.

In December 2015, 196 countries adopted a legally binding international treaty on climate change the so-called Paris Agreement. In doing so, the majority of the world’s countries agreed in implementing a plan of actions toward limiting the global temperature to well below 2oC, preferably to 1.5 oC, compared to pre-industrial levels (taken as 1850-1900). 

According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change…
