The comprehensive Breaking the Plastic Wave study, released in July 2020 by The Pew

The comprehensive Breaking the Plastic Wave study, released in July 2020 by The Pew Charitable Trusts and SYSTEMIQ, confirms the circular economy as the sole solution to plastic waste and pollution.

The Foundation's perspective emphasizes this vision's economic, climate, and social benefits. Urgent action is critical; a five-year delay means 80 million additional tonnes of plastic entering our oceans by 2040. Learn more about this vital solution.

Join members of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation team for a live conversation exploring the circular economy. This compelling concept presents a clear business case for redesigning everyday products and establishing fundamentally new operating models for businesses.

The discussion will delve into critical questions: How does the circular economy differentiate from sustainability or advanced recycling? Is its primary focus on efficiency or effectiveness, and does that distinction matter? Should it be implemented as a top-down or bottom-up approach?

This broadcast features Seb Egerton-Read, Stella Chavin, Sarah O'Carroll, and Laura Franco Henao, who will discuss the underlying values and relevant topics of the circular economy.

The global food system generates 20-30% of greenhouse gas emissions, largely from production. Conventional rice production, a staple for over half the world, alone generates emissions equivalent to global aviation. The System of Rice Intensification (SRI) offers an agroecological solution.

SRI employs simple interventions to significantly reduce water use, methane, and chemicals, while boosting yields and cutting labor. Currently 4% of rice production, scaling SRI to 25% could reduce emissions equivalent to India's total output.
