What Industrial Ecology and spaceships have in common with Santiago Perez

In this episode Santiago Perez (usually the host of the podcast, here as guest as well) thinks aout loud and describes his PhD research. We explore here what is Industrial Ecology and why is it important to do research on that. From spaceships heading to Mars to boats sailing all around the world we explore Santiago's visions and thoughts on how to generate more sustainable (and just) realities.
