An event organized by the German Forest Protection Association with Dr. Christian Klar from BioökonomieREVIER at Forschungszentrum Jülich
From lignite to the bioeconomy
How the Rhenish mining area is becoming a model region for a bio-based circular economy
What does a future look like in which we can do without fossil raw materials - and still live and do business well?
Dr. Christian Klar, head of the BioökonomieREVIER coordination office at Forschungszentrum Jülich, takes us on an exciting journey through the transformation of the Rhenish mining area: from disused opencast mines to bio-inspired innovations, from waste to valuable raw materials and from fossil dependencies to regional value creation.
Using concrete examples - such as the production of sustainable packaging from grass fibers, the use of wood waste for new building materials or the development of bio-based plastics - Dr. Klar will show how research and companies are working together to create the basis for a circular, climate-friendly economy.
A lecture for everyone who wants to know how the future is made - practically, innovatively and sustainably.
