Join us for a half-day event! Join us at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences in Brussels on Wednesday, 4 December 2024, for Cities Under Pressure, an event that brings together geologists, urban planners, and environmental researchers. As European cities face both geological and escalating climate challenges, understanding the geology of our urban environments has become crucial. “The Urban Geo-Climate Footprint” documentary takes viewers on an eye-opening journey beneath Europe’s iconic cities, revealing how underlying geological structures influence their resilience to climate change and other natural challenges. From earthquakes to shifting soils, from floods to volcanic eruptions, from geothermal energy to groundwater, the film demonstrates how geology impacts many aspects of city life, offering a unique perspective on the natural forces and resources that support our cities.
More information can be found on the EuroGeosurveys website.
You can now register here for this event as soon as possible, we have 150 seats available.
