Hosted by Duncan Stewart, the 'Take, make, dispose' model describes our current linear economy: extracting raw materials, making products, then discarding them. This 20th-century consumerism has led to dwindling resources, overflowing waste, and significant environmental damage.

In contrast, the Circular Economy offers a progressive, efficient, and environmentally friendly alternative, mimicking nature by eliminating waste. The final Eco Eye series 12 program explores this model, showcasing Irish companies adopting it and featuring experts discussing its challenges and opportunities.

Stand Down events are crucial initiatives designed to help traumatized Veterans overcome homelessness and reintegrate into society. These three-day gatherings provide essential medical, dental, and legal services, but their primary impact lies in restoring a vital sense of community. Founder Dr. John Natchison aptly describes them as a "drug-free Woodstock combined with Maslow's hierarchy of needs and a family picnic."

With over 300 events across the U.S., Stand Down mobilizes 2,000 volunteers to welcome 1,000 Veterans at each session. Recognizing that Veterans disproportionately experience trauma, PTSD, substance abuse, and homelessness, these events foster the community and connection necessary for them to recover their purpose and passion.
