Green Team

The focus of environmental technologies has shifted from manufacturing to products. Moreover, in the near future we will see environmental technologies focusing more and more on what is needed by people to conduct a sustainable lifestyle. At the same time, profound change in the life of our societies is needed to address global challenges - climate change mitigation and adaptation, oil peak, material scarcity. These changes create opportunities and need for sustainability research.
