SEM perpetual online conference: SEM and COVID-19

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.
