Recycling City Talks. Green technologies day.

Comparteix Share
What are the green walls and ceilings for? Can an old landfill be recovered with only natural technologies? What can we do to prevent both floods and periods of extreme drought? How can we face the future management of water in a city like Terrassa?

These and other questions will be discussed at the Conference on Green Technology Recycling in the City Series, held on October 26th in the auditorium of Catalonia’s Science and Technology Museum (mNACTEC for its Spanish acronym), organized by the UNESCO Sustainability Chair at the UPC, in collaboration with Bcauselab, Barrinar cap a la Sostenibilitat (Drilling for Sustainability), in partnership with the Mine Water Terrassa Foundation, the City of Terrace and the same mNACTEC.


Recycling City is a place for exchange and sharing of ideas and experiences for transforming cities towards sustainable human development. It aims to rethink about cities, their metabolic cycles and best practices of the everyday life.


On this subject, we count with the participation of a group of experts from the UNESCO Chair of Sustainability at the University of Antioquia in Medellin in Colombia, and the storm empresaVegetal Water Terrace.
