Circular business models: making the economics work
April 27, 2021

The textiles industry significantly impacts resources and water, perpetuating a linear "take-make-waste" economy. The Ellen MacArthur Foundation advocates for making circular economy models, such as resale and repair, the norm through economic incentives and regulations.

This episode, powered by Restream, explores policy's enabling role in increasing circular business model adoption. We'll hear perspectives from the European Commission, the European Environment Agency, and the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency.
