Description

In this episode host Dr Sarah Jane O’Conner is joined by guests Dr. Ben Walker (School of Management) and Hannah Blumhardt (Institute for Governance and Policy Studies) to discuss the circular economy. A circular economy is a systems solution framework that tackles global challenges like climate change through the elimination of waste and pollution, reusing products and materials, and regenerating nature. The guests discuss ways to re-think how resources are consumed and disposed, and how this framework might encompass and shift value perceptions of skills-based and sharing economies. They introduce these ideas through the lens of the individual consumer and the business sector, and propose strategies for government-led action and implementation.
