Abstract Starting from the necessary rethinking of the hyper-technological, hyper-fast and hyper-connected global system in which we have been so far immersed and which has contributed to trigger the current pandemic, the present work aims at starting some preliminary reflections on possible scenarios aimed at overcoming the current critical issues and at safeguarding the human group from similar future risks. More precisely, the research will try to highlight not only how the necessary social distancing and forced isolation can strengthen the hypothesis of the shut- in economy and the remodeling of urban spaces, but also how the destruction of habitats and the emissions generated by a linear system of productivity, aimed more at exploitation than at the protection of renewable resources, make urgent both the launch of an economy rethought in a circular sense, and the strengthening of "zero km" production.
