Episode 4: Circular Cities

  • Summary

  • According to data from the World Bank, cities are home to 56% of the global population. However, the United Nations Environment Programme estimates that cities also contribute to 75% of global carbon emissions. Local and municipal governments play an important role in putting the circular economy into action. But what would a circular city look like, and how can city governments design, promote and support circular systems?


    Featuring: Liz Goodwin, chair at ReLondon and senior fellow and director of food loss and waste at the World Resources Institute; Kate Raworth, author of Doughnut Economics and co-founder of the Doughnut Economics Lab; Marta Suplicy, municipal secretary of international relations of the City of São Paulo; and Shiva Susarla, founder of Circular Cities Asia and founder and CEO of RENERGii.
