Hi Simo, 

Can you please update the description for our Sustainable Consuming working group to:

What will a sustainable future mean for the way we consume?  How can we fulfill individual needs and desires more sustainably?  What are the impacts of the future of food, consumer electronics, household goods, luxury goods, and household services such as energy, water, personal mobility, etc - and what will these impacts mean for our daily lives?  What are promising practices towards more sustainable consuming?

This working group will explore these questions and more as we develop a vision for more sustainable lifestyles and a roadmap of action strategies to get us from today to our vision for lifestyles that support a more sustainable future.

Working Group Co-Chairs:  CSCP & ULUND

Join us!

 

And delete current description:

We must build understanding on the impacts and future of food, as well as other consumption products and services. Tools such as carbon labels are needed by consumers, producers and businesses.

 

Thank you!
