Eliminate, Circulate, Regenerate
March 27, 2023
In this episode, we’ll explore the challenges in transitioning from our take, make, waste economy to a circular economy based on three key principles — eliminate waste and pollution, circulate products and materials, and regenerate nature. Our spotlight focuses on BIOHM, the biotechnology startup using mushrooms to revolutionise the construction industry Farmer Susannah Crampton, shows that regenerative practices don’t only relate to food, taking us into the heart of wool farming in the stunning Irish countryside of Kilkenny. We ask Dr Anna Birney from the School of System Change why the linear system is so hard to change. Nick Jeffries is in the studio answering YOUR questions - and we head back to the archives to look at fashion's circular business models ------ Thank you for watching this video.
