About This Collection

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation is an independent charity with the aim of inspiring a generation to re-think, re-design & build a positive future through the vision of a circular economy. Ellen MacArthur founded the Foundation to better understand how on land too we rely on finite resources in the form of materials, energy and water after her experiences as a world class sailor having sailed over 26,000 miles to become the fastest person to circumnavigate the globe single-handed.

The Circular Economy 100 is a global platform bringing together leading companies, emerging innovators and regions to accelerate the transition to a circular economy over a 1000-day (3 year) period. The Annual Summit was held Wednesday 19 June 2013.

April 24, 2023

This episode explores how resetting systems empowers better choices. We examine ReLondon's circular economy initiatives, Barcelona's superblocks creating pedestrian spaces, and Sao Paulo's efforts to redesign the food system. The discussion also covers the circular economy's first principle—eliminating waste and pollution—and addresses key fashion questions.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity, champions a circular economy that eliminates waste, circulates products, and regenerates nature. For more insights, subscribe to our YouTube channel.
