The Circular Economy Show | Building with a circular economy

The Circular Economy Show is a fortnightly discussion and debate around how we can move from a linear take-make-waste economy towards a circular economy.

In each episode, our hosts are joined by inspiring businesses, policymakers, academics, and designers to discuss how circular economy solutions are being scaled, at speed, to create long-term economic growth and tackle global challenges including climate change and pollution.

Throughout 2021 we will be bringing you engaging conversations on topics including circular design, measuring circular economy performance at the company level, financing the circular economy, and regenerative food production solutions to tackle climate change and biodiversity loss.

The built environment significantly contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and uses almost 50% of the materials extracted every year. Of these materials, 15% are wasted in the construction process. We must look for ways to build better. In this episode, we will explore different circular strategies that organisations have adopted in their construction process and hear about exciting examples from around the world — from Ghana to the UK.
