Today, the global economy is only 8.6% circular — just two years ago it was 9.1%. The global circularity gap is widening and the trend is negative. These trends are embedded deeply within the 'take-make-waste' tradition of the linear economy. As such, the outlook to close the circularity gap looks bleak under the dead hand of business as usual. We desperately need transformative and correctional solutions; change is a must.
Join the discussion with Caspar von Daniels, one of the co-authors of the Circularity Gap Report 2020, moderated by Professor Jane Nelson, Director of the Corporate Responsibility Initiative at Harvard Kennedy School.
Lunch will be provided. RSVP here.
*This event is part of a series of pre-events leading to the first Circular Economy Symposium at Harvard on March 6th, 2020. Register for in-person or online participation here.
