What is the Bioeconomy and Why Does It Matter?
From Natural Resources to a Low-Carbon Future
The Bioeconomy
The bioeconomy is the part of the economy that uses renewable resources from agriculture, forestry and the marine to produce food, feed, materials and energy, while reducing waste, in support of achieving a sustainable and climate neutral society.
This shift is essential to:
-
Reduce dependence on fossil fuels
-
Lower emissions and support climate action

Use resources more efficiently through circular systems
