Global Cleaner Production & Sustainable Consumption Conference

10th March 2015

To celebrate more than two decades of the Journal of Cleaner Production, Elsevier will play host to the Global Cleaner Production & Sustainable Consumption Conference.

It is set to be held in Barcelona during the start of November (1-4). The conference is entitled “Accelerating the Transition to Equitable Post Fossil-Carbon Societies” and will focus on strategic approaches being implemented which are fuelling the transition to post-fossil carbon societies.

This global conference will catalyse dialogue among leaders from academia, industry, business, government, and non-governmental organisations, to accelerate the application of knowledge and experiences that are helping communities and regions to make the transition to dematerialised and post-fossil carbon societies.

Workshops, simulations, games, demonstrations, exhibitions and other interactive tools will be used to empower participants to co-learn how to develop and adapt new approaches in diverse cultural contexts. These activities will also help people to develop new networks to collaborate on the issues associated with consumption.
