Welcome to the November edition of RECAP. In this month’s new look edition we see how five major cities are boldly tackling climate change and how Google's new app will help municipalities and metropolises to keep their inhabitants cool by mapping areas where trees are most needed to combat overheating. We look at a short film that discusses the need to switch from a linear make-waste-dispose economy to a more cyclical economy where products and components are designed to be disassembled and regenerated, and take a look at JDS Architects and Othalo’s innovative new vision to build affordable homes from recycled plastic waste...and much more. We hope you enjoy it!
