Doctors Joan Rieradevall Pons and Carles Gasol Martínez will talk about their book ‘Economía circular. El camino hacia la sostenibilidad’, on Thursday 5 June, at 6 p.m., at the Mundana space in Barcelona (Calle Aribau, 34).
Coinciding with World Environment Day, the authors will talk with the co-founders of the shop, Anna and Jaume Colomer, about the policies, indicators, tools and innovation strategies that reduce the environmental impact of consumption, and which are carried out in this space located in the heart of Barcelona's Eixample.
The event is part of a programme that the space has organised for 4 and 5 June, which also includes other activities such as special sales, with the presence of fashion and accessories designers Cristina Korres and Joan Sales (Dino JSJ).
A sustainable pairing
Since its founding in June 2019, Mundana as been committed to responsible sales and consumption, with durable products that are not governed by trends. Its founders have conceived the shop as a meeting place ‘for those who make and for those who are looking for products outside the usual circuits’. In this way, the space at Calle Aribau 34 is a refuge offering a selection of icons that transcend time, and new interpretations of the most everyday standards. Origin aside, Mundana believes in a sustainability linked to the use and maintenance of the products, fleeing from those articles that the trend makes perish too early.
A perfect pairing with the book ‘Economía circular. El camino hacia la sostenibilidad’, which proposes the circular economy as one of the decisive strategies for achieving sustainable development. In the book, professors of Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering Joan Rieradevall Pons and Carles Gasol Martínez present case studies, indicators, tools and strategies for innovation, prevention and minimisation of resources, as well as examples of circular eco-design and global improvement of products and services to demonstrate that a completely circular future is possible.
The UAB Publications Service has been responsible for publishing the book, which is available in paper format for a fee and free open-access electronic format.
Dialogue on the book ‘Circular Economy. On the road to sustainability’.
