The International Biochar Initiative proposes that we bake organic waste (from food production, gardening, even sewage) to convert it into a toxic-free, multi-purpose material known as biochar. The process ultimately has a positive effect on the planet, which is why Project Drawdown rated biochar as one of the top 100 ideas that can reverse the effects of climate change. In this session we were joined by Kathleen Draper, a Board member of the International Biochar Initiative who has hosted regular webinars and tours to showcase world class examples of industrial scale biochar production facilities and markets. --- Thank you for watching this video.

Algramo's mission is to catalyse reusable packaging systems on a globally significant scale. With its network of 2,000+ convenience stores and packaging reuse rates over 80%, Algramo caught the attention of brands like Unilever, Nestle and others keen to explore reusable packaging. With their brand partners, they co-develop technology like Packaging as a Wallet (PaaW), that communicates with IoT connected vending machines. Through their distribution system, Unilever sells their laundry detergent for 30% below supermarket prices. Algramo’s newest project is creating its flagship store that will be the logistics hub for a fleet of electric tricycles. -- Thank you for watching this video.

The wastefulness of takeaway paper coffee cups and issues of recyclability have regularly featured in the headlines in recent years as topics like ocean plastics become increasingly prominent. Better design and reuse are clearly on top of the agenda, but there's demands for better recycling are also firmly on the agenda of governments, organisations and consumers. In this short video, hear from DS Smith's European Strategic Development Director Tom Campbell-White, who has led efforts on the paper and cardboard business side. Also hear from Costa's Head of Environment, Oliver Rosevear, who provides the retailer's perspective. ----------------------------------------------------- Thank you for watching this video.

t was over an ironing board when Jason realized that many of the every day products we buy are 90% water , with only small amount of active ingredients. This massive inefficiency in how consumer products are designed, manufactured and sold is why billions of pounds of wasted plastic pollute the land, sea and air every year. Something had to be done. This was the inspiration that created Replenish, a reusable bottle and concentrate refill platform that makes it easy for consumers to add their own water, at the point of use instead of at a far away factory, to make the products they use every day. Replenish aims to break the endless cycle of waste in today’s fast moving consumer goods industry. -- Thank you for watching this video.

Incremental shifts to the way things currently work won't work. The circular economy is a much bigger idea than recycling better or making things less bad, it's about interconnected solutions that meet interconnected challenges, and it's happening today driving innovation at speed and scale. In this episode, we zoom in to just a few of these innovations and zoom out to see how they are transforming the system that they are a part of.

Find out more here: https://www.ellenmacarthurfoundation.org/explore/plastics-and-the-circular-economy Plastics are versatile materials, but the way we use them is incredibly wasteful. More clean-ups and better recycling alone, won't solve plastic waste pollution. We must shift our focus to innovations and business models that design out waste, and keep materials in use and protect and restore our environment. We need a circular economy for plastic in which it never becomes waste or pollution. The vision for a circular economy for plastic packaging has 6 key points described in this video.

How do you convince work colleagues that your bright idea isn’t just another burden to their existing workload? Working with policymakers at the regional and city level in Italy, Luigi Acquaviva has had to learn a few tricks when it comes to turning environmental ideas into practice. Meanwhile in Scotland, Cheryl McCulloch had the job of exciting Glasgow businesses and policymakers about the circular economy. The circular city scan they produced managed to turn heads and opinions towards a new way of collaborating. --- Thank you for watching this video.

The global food system is responsible for between 20-30% of greenhouse gas emissions, most of which are generated at the production stage. Take rice, for example, a food staple that is eaten regularly by over half the world’s population. Conventional rice production generates emissions equivalent to the entire global aviation industry. So how can we produce rice in a way that uses fewer resources and regenerates nature? A growing number of farmers around the world are changing the way they produce rice, by adopting an agroecological approach called the System of Rice Intensification (SRI). This method relies on a small group of simple interventions that together significantly reduces water use, methane production, and the use of chemicals, while providing better yields and reducing labour for rice farmers. Multinational companies who support this type of agriculture through procurement and product design can address their scope 3 emissions and build resilience in their supplier communities. According to Project Drawdown, SRI currently accounts for 4% of rice production. If this was increased to 25%, the emissions reduction would be equivalent to that which is currently generated by the whole of India. ------ Thank you for watching this video.
