Durability of cement mortars and concretes exposed to biological attack as one of the sustainability parameter – a correlation analysis
(Corresponding) Ondrejka Harbulakova V., Estokova A., Smolakova M., Luptakova A.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
Among the pillars of the sustainability, the aspect of prolongation of life of constructions has to be involved. Focus on sustainability of construction leads to study of durability of building materials. Phenomenon called biocorrosion, existing mainly in concrete sewer systems, agricultural...Read more
Mitigation potentials of tree-crops: An economic evaluation of trading-off carbon sequestration with actual market goods.
Bithas K., (Corresponding) LATINOPOULOS D.
Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
As climate objectives are far from being reached under the prevailing policies, more concrete actions should be undertaken, and all possibilities should be exploited. Land-based mitigation potentials are emerging as a cost-effective mitigation prospect. CO2 sequestration is an essential ecosystem...Read more
Calculating Carbon Footprint in ports through a new Standard Tool: case study applications
Azarkamand S., Ferré G., (Corresponding) Darbra R.
Topic:
Environmental impact of maritime transport
One of the main environmental problems in ports is Climate Change and its consequences. Since 1979, many international organizations have been working to control Climate Change. A literature review and a practical research were carried out to set up the basis to create a tool. These studies showed...Read more

Analysing the indicators and the associated recommendations of household emission calculators
(Corresponding) Alexopoulos C., Karelis C., Keramidis P., Orfanou A., Lekkas D., Charalabidis Y.
Topic:
The impact of citizen science on environmental attitudes, behaviour and knowledge
Climate change and greenhouse gas emissions are some of the most noted topics of the last years. Carbon footprint calculators provide an interesting solution when it comes to informing people about the above topic. These calculators try to estimate the carbon footprint, the total amount of...Read more
