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.

Dr. Jasmine Marcelin, an infectious diseases expert and frontline healthcare hero, highlights the profound exhaustion and emotional toll COVID-19 has taken on medical staff and other essential workers. While healthcare workers perform their daily duties heroically, the pandemic has decimated their energy and well-being.

Marcelin argues that genuine appreciation extends beyond gifts; it requires everyone to step up, combat the virus, and reduce its spread to alleviate the burden on frontline personnel. An Assistant Professor at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, she is a fierce advocate for health equity, justice, diversity, and inclusion, and a prominent leader within the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA).

Rapid decarbonization of Western lifestyles is essential to avoid catastrophic climate change. This talk, based on the EU-funded CityZEN project, outlines a methodology to engage communities in envisioning a shared, carbon-free future. By visualizing individual carbon footprints, design interventions can transform consumption across urban space, mobility, and energy, creating bio-diverse, prosperous, and connected neighborhoods.

Greg Keeffe, Professor of Sustainable Architecture at Queens University Belfast, is an academic and urban designer with over 30 years' experience in sustainability. He develops innovative solutions for urban revitalization and theoretical hypotheses for our future existence. This presentation was delivered at a TEDx event. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.

Transportation policymakers face a critical dual challenge: electrifying the nation's vehicle fleet and establishing a stable funding source. As the U.S. shifts to electric vehicles, the traditional reliance on motor fuel taxes is unsustainable, necessitating new models like mileage fees or carbon taxes.

This vital discussion features U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, Senator Alex Padilla, and other experts. The program is supported by the Mineta Transportation Institute at San José State University.

The Commonwealth Club of California, the nation's oldest and largest public affairs forum, hosts this event. For more information and upcoming events, visit: SUBSCRIBE | UPCOMING EVENTS | BECOME a MEMBER | DONATE NOW | Watch & Listen | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter
