    Le présent rapport est la contribution du Centre d'écologie urbaine pour la phase 1 du Plan d'Action Climat de la commune de Forest (Bruxelles, Belgique), il présente les « Perspectives climatiques et diagnostic des risques et vulnérabilités de Forest face aux changements climatiques » en se référant aux perspectives climatiques attendues pour le territoire belge/forestois d’ici la seconde moitié du 21e siècle. Ce diagnostic a révélé des disparités que l’on peut qualifier d’"inégalités environnementales" qui sont explicitées et cartographiées pour la première fois.0info:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

    The renewal of politics through co-creation: the analysis of the case of rainwater and biowaste in Brussels

    No full text
    In 2015, The Brussels Institute for Research and Innovation (Innoviris) launched an innovative policy in Europe, inviting Brussels research consortia to propose participatoryaction research (PAR) projects. PHOSPHORE and BRUSSEAU worked for three years in and on Brussels socio-technical systems, respectively on biowaste and water management. These research projects revealed many institutional (governance) tensions, and tackled many political issues which this paper analyses because they are still insufficiently explored in the literature. The main contribution of the paper is the discussion of the reflexive learning between the two projects concerning the institutional tensions (reductive injunctions, black boxes, antagonisms, post-political) and moments of confluences (impacts on municipalities strategies and policies, rebalancing of distribution of power, removal of regulatory barriers, emergence of a multi-level and multi-technical approach) we encountered.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

    Les implications d’une circularisation des métabolismes territoriaux – une revue de la littérature

    Plusieurs facteurs poussent aujourd’hui les villes à transformer leurs métabolismes. L’article est structuré de la manière suivante. La terminologie du métabolisme des villes ainsi que l’usage des concepts de linéarité/circularité dans le cadre de l’analyse métabolique sont clarifiés dans la Section 2. Puisant dans la littérature existante, la Section 3 distingue trois lignes de force des métabolismes territoriaux et examine les implications de la circularisation de chacune d’entre elles. La section 4 conclut l’article.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

    Decentralised Organic Resource Treatments – Classification and comparison through Extended Material Flow Analysis

    No full text
    The article presents a classification and comparison of Decentralised Organic Resource Treatments (DORTs), a term that refers to relatively small-scale biowaste treatments that have emerged as a promising alternative to centralised, industrial facilities. Despite growing interest from policy makers and waste professionals, accessible and coherent information on different decentralised treatments is currently not available. To overcome this gap in the literature, we propose an Extended Material Flow Analysis (EMFA) based on a review of the literature and expert interviews. In addition to flows of inputs and outputs, the EMFA also accounts on the economic, normative, and technical aspects of each treatment. The final EMFA database includes seven broad types of DORTs (composting, anaerobic digestion, dehydration, lactic acid fermentation, mulching, vermicomposting and animal valorisation) that are further divided into 18 representative models. The most relevant and comparable variables are summarised in form of synthetic flow diagrams. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved
