Does circular economy terminology create misleading understandings, hindering its real-world implementation? Businesses and policymakers frequently discuss the challenges of transitioning to this new economic system, grappling with barriers like finance, policy, and supply chains.

While these are crucial, an often-overlooked challenge lies in the words and terminology themselves. This group will explore why choosing the right terms is as vital to the transition as finding alternatives to single-use plastic, identifying influential words and phrases.

The World Bank Group supports a sustainable cattle ranching program in Colombia's Orinoquía region. This initiative uses silvopastoral methods, integrating trees, forage, and livestock, to help farmers adapt to climate change. As a leading source of funding and knowledge for low-income countries, the World Bank Group is dedicated to reducing poverty and promoting sustainable development.

Dania, a climate refugee from Aleppo, Syria, realized her family's displacement was caused by climate change. Now living in Revere, MA, she observes similar ignored indicators impacting her marginalized community, prompting her to advocate against climate injustices.

Driven by her scientific passion, Dania mobilizes efforts from a global perspective to local sea-level rise impacts. She works with youth-led organizations to empower young people and people of color, promoting equitable, science-based climate policy.

This talk was given at a TEDx event. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx.

Isha Clarke, a 16-year-old Oakland activist, co-founded Youth vs. Apocalypse to protest a controversial coal terminal planned for an underserved community. Her early activism highlighted environmental racism and the critical need for environmental justice.

Now a leader, Isha and Youth vs. Apocalypse gained national attention confronting Senator Dianne Feinstein about the Green New Deal in a viral video. They continue advocating for radical climate action centered on frontline communities, organizing major events like the Bay Area Youth Climate Strike and actions at the California Democratic Convention. Isha champions a movement that amplifies the voices of youth and marginalized communities.

In 1987, Arizona scientists created Biosphere 2, a 3-acre domed facility to mimic Earth's living systems. Early self-sufficiency experiments faced oxygen and food challenges, but this incredible facility now hosts major earth science research. Discover its story and insights into natural systems by watching Biosphere 2's director, Joaquin Ruiz, at Summit 2019.

This video is from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity accelerating the transition to a circular economy. We work across business, learning, and insight to establish the circular economy on the global agenda.

In 1987 Arizona, scientists created Biosphere 2, a 3-acre domed facility designed to mimic Earth's living systems without external aid. Early experiments, where crews lived inside, faced oxygen loss and food shortages. Despite initial failures, Biosphere 2 now conducts some of the world's largest earth science experiments, offering vital insights into natural systems for global challenges.

We will also speak with participants from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation's "From Linear to Circular" program. Forty-four young professionals and students recently completed a week-long study on the circular economy. Discover their experiences, motivations, and how they will apply their learning to their studies and careers.
