Extraction Zero (X0) is Dark Matter Labs’ mission to transition the built environment away from extractive practices.
It creates the necessary infrastructure in the building industry to build capacities, resilience, and alliances for the constraint future of urbanism. This structured alliance works alongside existing institutions and brings together public mandate-building, knowledge creation, capital deployment, and regulatory change into one integrated system under current and future materials and carbon risks.
It includes projects such as New European Bauhaus Economy, Homes that don't cost the Earth, Extraction zero policy, Malmo: the Future is Here, Les Matérialistes, New Economic Thinking: Enabling a just transition for the built environment in Europe, Healthy Clean cities EU CINCO, Healthy, Clean Cities - Deep Demonstration and many other projects within Dark Matter Labs.
