Synopsis

This book is the second volume of the books highlight cutting-edge EcoDesign research, covering product and service design, smart manufacturing, and social perspectives in EcoDesign. Featuring selected papers presented at EcoDesign2025: The 14th International Symposium on Environmentally Conscious Design and Inverse Manufacturing, it also includes diverse, interdisciplinary approaches to foster EcoDesign research and activities. In the context of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), it addresses the need for the manufacturing industry to design innovations for social transformation, taking into account technological developments, legislation, and consumer lifestyles. Further, the book discusses the concept of circular economy, which originated in Europe and aims to increase resource efficiency by shifting away from the linear economy.

This Volume II contains topics related to Life Cycle Evaluation, Sustainability Indices, Digital Technologies for Sustainability, Sustainable Social Infrastructure, Sustainable Consumption and Production, Finance and Investment for Sustainability, and Policy, Legislation and Social Activities. The readers of this volume can catch up the latest achievement about these research fields.
