This episode explores industrial symbiosis, a business concept mirroring nature's symbiosis where multiple species benefit from close living. Here, businesses collaborate to share resources and reduce waste within a local community.

We feature Lisbeth Randers from Kalundborg Industrial Park, a prime example, and Radu Godina (NOVA School of Science and Technology), who highlights its circular economy potential. Hosts Colin and Pippa delve into the financial, environmental, and social benefits, as well as the challenges of this transformative approach.

This workshop examines how society has institutionalized culture within leisure, tourism, and academia, positioning it in a specific economic niche. It also introduces the Critical Assessment Framework (CAF) for envisioning programs and indicators that foster a culture of sustainability.

Participants will identify and reflect on societal assumptions, insights, and blind spots. The workshop is presented by Douglas Worts, Culture and Sustainability Specialist at World Views Consulting (douglasworts.org), and Dr. Lynne Teather, Professor in the Master of Museum Studies Program at the University of Toronto.

Italy, situated between the rapidly warming Adriatic and Mediterranean seas, is acutely vulnerable to climate change. Last year, severe drought drained many rivers and dried up 45% of its farmland.

This year, northern Italy's Emilia-Romagna region faced catastrophic flooding, with rivers bursting banks and submerging thousands of acres after receiving half their annual rainfall in 36 hours. Professor Peter Wadhams, witnessing these crises firsthand from Turin, highlights heat as a major concern, regardless of varying wet or dry conditions.

This TEDx talk, presented on October 17, 2020, at TEDxEuropeanSustainabilityAcademy Crete, addressed climate change and sustainability. Professor Theocharis Tsoutsos, from the Environmental Engineering School at TU Crete and founder of the Renewable & Sustainable Energy Lab (ReSEL), shared insights into Rethymno's successful sustainable mobility initiative.

He detailed the H2020 CIVITAS Destinations project, which engaged diverse stakeholders to implement policy-based mobility solutions. This program significantly improved residents' quality of life, enhanced the city's image, and enriched visitor experiences, establishing Rethymno as a 'lighthouse example' for other EU cities.

The linear, extractive economic model poses increasing risks to the global economy and its financial sector. This episode presents new evidence from Bocconi University on the circular economy's de-risking effect, driven by resource decoupling and business model diversification, creating opportunities for investors and financial institutions.

We'll be joined by Max Tellini, Head of Circular Economy at Intesa Sanpaolo, and Professor Claudio Zara, Researcher at Bocconi University, in conversation with Emily Healy from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation.

Glaciers are vital for global cooling and freshwater, but they are rapidly shrinking worldwide. Accelerating ice loss, particularly in the Himalayas, Alps, and at both poles, causes severe events

Glaciers are vital for global cooling and freshwater, but they are rapidly shrinking worldwide. Accelerating ice loss, particularly in the Himalayas, Alps, and at both poles, causes severe events like avalanches and flash floods, exacerbating disasters such as Pakistan's 2022 monsoons.

Professors Detlef Stammer (University of Hamburg) and Peter Wadhams (Cambridge University) will discuss these disappearing glaciers, their impacts, and potential conservation measures.
