Circular economy as environmental, technological and productive opportunity (03/06/2016)

The relationship between technology and the environment has focused the conference "Techno-optimism. Technologies for a model of circular economy" that have held this morning in the program of the Week of Environment has organized the Department of Environment of the City of San Javier, a proposal by Rafael López Peña, volunteer Time Bank of San Javier.

The Councillor for Environment, Antonio Luengo, recalled at the opening of the conference held in the auditorium of the municipal building multipurpose that circular economy proposes a new model that optimizes and uses the flows of materials, energy and waste in order to make efficient use of resources in line with the fight against climate change.

In contrast to the linear economy (mining, manufacturing, use and disposal), the circular system proposes that the product must be designed to be deconstructed so that waste can be converted into raw materials.

The development of this system would involve productive reorientation of countries, and help reduce the use of resources, reduce waste production and limit energy consumption.

Francisco Victoria, an expert on climate change, the Development Service of Environment and Climate Change of the Ministry of Water, Agriculture and Environment of the Region of Murcia, opened the talks by saying that "nobody doubts of climate change" he cited as an example "measured and tested", the sea level rise "half a centimeter a year," due to greenhouse gases.

Reducing emissions is the only solution for Francisco Victoria in all productive fields, and focusing on agriculture said that its emissions are 50% of products such as nitrous oxide in the land, and 50% by the use of fuels fossils in machinery and transport the product.

Another solution is to retain as long as possible carbon, making "sink" as in agriculture, through the trees, or soil.

Francisco Victoria gave the example of a greenhouse visited in El Mirador, where once removed harvest of peppers, other vegetables elements are crushed to return back to the earth, without reaching to produce issue.

Greenhouses, "One hundred percent self-sufficient" also spoke the second speaker, Pablo Carbonell, of Ecoproyectoa.

Manuel Sanchez, Himoinsa, multinational company, located in San Javier and dedicated to the manufacture of generators, spoke of new hybrid models hydrogen / solar biogas.
