This podcast episode delves into the idea of adopting a circular economy model to address global climate change. It emphasizes the transition from a linear economy, where resources are extracted-used-discarded, to a circular one, where products and materials are reused, repurposed, and recycled, thus reducing greenhouse gas emissions and waste creation. The episode highlights successful initiatives in cities like San Francisco, Massachusetts, and San Antonio and discusses the importance of digital and operational infrastructure, connectivity among citizens and businesses, incentivized participation, and government policies in driving circularity and reuse.
