ISIE-SEM perpetual online conference: Session 6, January 2021

Socio-Economic Metabolism

We are happy to announce the 6th session of the ISIE Socioeconomic Metabolism Section perpetual online conference: “Towards Sustainable Material Stocks.”

In our socio-economic metabolism, material stocks are the other side of the coin to material flows. We need to consider both stocks and flows simultaneously for sustainable development. In the January session, we focus on the material stocks of our society from many aspects including indicators, materials, modelling and life cycle impacts.
