On 18 February 2019 (5:00 PM CET / 11:00 AM EST), the OECD is holding "Green Talks LIVE - Materials use to 2060: Economic drivers and environmental consequences".
The world’s consumption of raw materials is set to nearly double by 2060 as the global economy expands and living standards rise, placing twice the pressure on the environment than we are seeing today. What economic mechanisms drive material use and how will this affect the environment?
This edition of OECD Green Talks LIVE will highlight findings from the report Global Material Resources Outlook to 2060: Economic Drivers and Environmental Consequences and will feature a panel of experts of the OECD Environment Directorate.
