How to contribute to a quantum leap of eco-industrial symbiosis in China?

Creating information portals for support of European environmental policy.

Has the industrial sector in China effectively been decarbonizing in recent years, across different regions and subsectors, and is it plausible that it will reduce its CO2 emissions in conformity with national and internationally pledged emission goals?

This volume is pubished in the IMISCOE-AUP Series and edited by Marlou Schrover and Deirdre M. Moloney.

The key characteristic of active matter is the motion of an emergent collection (such as a flock of birds), which is driven by the consumption of energy by its active components (i.e. individual birds).

The glycosylation reaction is a pivotal reaction in creating new and complex oligosaccharides.
