The first of four Thematic Working Groups created by the Interreg MED's Green Growth community focused on Sustainable Consumption and Production by enhancing Resource Efficiency in the Mediterranean agrofood sector as well as in urban areas through the implementation of the Smart City Concept.
This White Paper zooms in on the difficulties that companies face in:
- Measuring their environmental footprint and resource efficiency;
- The use of low-cost, low-tech, labour-intensive, and rudimentarily-equipped greenhouses;
- The lack of energy efficiency and renovation of EU buildings.
It then presents the projects' solutions and the benefits of resource efficiency for the environment and the economy. The projects were monitored according to the EU CEAP's indicator framework.
