Climate and Economics – Moving Toward a Circular Model to Reduce Waste
About This Webinar
How do we address the plastic pollution crisis and transition to a circular system?
Our current take-make-waste system floods our planet with trash. It impacts human health and the health of our ecosystems, especially in our ocean.
Transitioning to a borrow-use-return model designs waste out of the equation, ensuring that products and materials are used and then reused. This system creates a market for effective recycling, promoting economic growth that is healthier for people and the planet.
Get inspired by this circular vision as we speak with leaders of local companies who are implementing its best practices. Learn how they are growing businesses while reducing impact and find out how you can become a part of this global movement.
