Circular Economy

What does the circular economy look like? What will it take to make the circular economy a new standard? What if we created an economy where the success of a product was directly linked to how it benefits the planet? Hosts Mardis and Phnam Bagley contemplate these big questions in this episode of Future Future. They explain how reusing, repairing, refurbishing, remanufacturing, and recycling are ways of slowing down the process of a product going into a landfill. They talk about the power of regenerative design and design for disassembly. And, they talk about how consumers can demand radical transparency from companies to spark widespread change.
