A series of thematic publications released by the Basque Ecodesign Centre that simplify the technical aspects of emerging environmental themes, such as:

• Smart city: smart growth, smart neighbourhood, smart building, smart services, ICTs and home automation
• Ecodesign for a circular economy: extending the useful life, product recovery, parts recovery, material recovery
• Product durability
• Planned obsolescence
• Environmental reputation
• Green washing
• Collaborative consumption

Breaking down these terms and concepts into understandable actions helps top management in its resource efficiency efforts and environmental decision-making.
