Event Description
- Full Description:
- Evolution has resulted in a highly efficient use of materials and energy in biosphere systems: waste from one process is a resource for another. In today's society, resources are exploited, producing unusable waste streams and release of pollutants to soil, water, and air, leading to complex sustainability problems. Society can take lessons from the biosphere to solve these problems at a global scale. Circular economy aims to transform our industrial and urban systems into closed-loop, resource efficient and low carbon systems. Guest presenter is Dr Anthony Halog.
