Hosted at the Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, today’s event was and was attended by about 30 people from the university, NGOs and the municipality’s administration. After an introduction by the president of ZERO, Francisco Ferreira, Mathis Wackernagel (right on the photo) spoke about one-planet prosperity and the importance of biocapacity. Alessandro Galli presented Ecological Footprint and biocapacity results of the Mediterranean region. He highlighted the latest city-focused work in the region and the role of cities as sustainability players and hotspots. Sara Moreno Pires, Assistant Professor in the Department of Social, Political and Territorial Sciences at the University of Aveiro, presented the Footprint and biocapacity results for the municipality of Almada in 2016:
Almada’s first experience with the Ecological Footprint goes back to 2003, mentioned Nuno Lopes, Councillor of the municipality of Almada for the environment, innovation, climate, and energy (pictured speaking at right). As he commented on the new results, he welcomed the fact that the analysis confirms food is a priority area to focus on. He also stressed that the city is actively engaged in activities to reduce its Footprint and increase the local biocapacity. Strategies include diminishing energy use, promoting renewable energy sources, limiting urban expansion, and promoting green water infrastructures within the city.
