Regenerative Energie
About 180 million tons of residual waste is generated each year through households in the European Member States (EU28), which means every citizen produces more than one kilogram per day. Along with the industry the residual waste adds up to circa 2.5 billion tons. Large proportions of municipal solid waste (MSW) are still not recycled in an adequate manner because of the heterogeneity of the unsorted waste.
The management, segregation and treatment of unsorted waste cause high environmental impacts and socio-economic costs. However, MSW contains valuable resources. Commonly this waste is burned, mechanically-biologically treated or disposed of inlandfill sites. The aim of the project Waste2Go funded by the EU in the context of the Seventh Framework Program (FP7) is the development of an innovative recycling method for the biogenic fraction of MSW. The project will transform MSW as a sustainable source of raw materials for the chemical industry, displacing fossil sources. The sustainability of the project will be ensured by a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA).

Transformatives Klimarecht: Raum, Zeit, Gesellschaft

This article contends that climate law should be conceived as inherently transformative in a double sense. The law not only guides the necessary transformation of economy and society, but is itself undergoing transformation.
