Together with companies, governments, NGOs, we are 100% focused on supporting the bioeconomy, acting on the present and preparing for a sustainable future! Similar to the strategy adopted to deal with coronavirus, we are also acting to flatten a curve, but the curve of global consumption and natural resource use, aiming at creating a sustainable economy!<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"ember595\" class=\"feed-shared-update-v2__content feed-shared-image feed-shared-image--multi-image feed-shared-image--has-three-images feed-shared-image--span-first ember-view\">\n<div class=\"relative\">\n<div class=\"feed-shared-image__container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-11489 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/rsb.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/team-covid-updates-rsb2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"833\" height=\"625\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RSB\u2019s global team are used to working remotely, but we are all making adjustments to respond to the changing situations we find ourselves in.
