Circular economy, biodiversity, and the road to COP17
March 10, 2026

A recent episode of The Circular Economy Show explores how circular economy solutions can combat accelerating biodiversity loss. Lou, Marianne Kettunen (Ellen MacArthur Foundation), and Bianca Brasil (Convention on Biological Diversity) discuss critical connections.

They examine how resource extraction drives 90% of biodiversity loss, the role of circular business models in supporting the Global Biodiversity Framework, and actions required before COP17. The discussion also covers business engagement and integrating circular economy with biodiversity strategies.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a charity accelerating the circular economy to tackle global challenges like biodiversity loss, invites you to subscribe for insights and learn more about their work.
