EEA releases reports on emerging trends for the environment and environmental policies
24 November 2020
Article: 54/4709
The European Environment Agency (EEA) has published the following four briefing papers on the implications of emerging trends for the environment and environmental policies in Europe:
- Artificial meat and the environment
- Blockchain and the environment
- Delivery drones and the environment
- Synthetic biology and the environment
The briefings present the results of a horizon-scanning exercise, which drew on a range of sources to identify emerging trends of special relevance for the environment. Although there are currently limited data available to characterise these societal developments, the EEA believe it is crucial to anticipate their potential implications as early as possible.
