After teaching Geoscience, Marine Science, and Environmental Horticulture, Matt became concerned about modern agriculture's impact on ocean health. This led him to reconnect with his old Peace Corps friend, Nathan.

In 1999, Matt and Bobbie Brown met Nathan McFall in Togo, West Africa, where they collaborated with local communities on environmental education, soil conservation, and animal husbandry. You can learn more about Nathan's work here.

In summer 2010, the Brown family moved to Milwaukie, Oregon. There, they partnered with Nathan to establish the non-profit Food|Waves. Matt was interviewed by EarthSayers.tv in July 2011.

This session delves into financing and measuring the circular economy. Discover how it drives new growth, achieves climate and ESG goals, and how its financing market has rapidly expanded across asset classes. We will also explore methods for measuring circularity performance to inform decision-making for both business leaders and financiers.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity, accelerates the transition to a circular economy through business initiatives, learning, insights & analysis, and communications. Learn more about our work: www.ellenmacarthurfoundation.org.

Cities are vital for advancing the circular economy, unlocking economic, environmental, and social benefits, especially as two-thirds of the global population will live in urban centers by 2050.

Cities are vital for advancing the circular economy, unlocking economic, environmental, and social benefits, especially as two-thirds of the global population will live in urban centers by 2050. Currently, cities face challenges from a "take-make-waste" linear economy. A circular economy offers a critical opportunity to rethink resource use and ensure long-term urban prosperity.

The "Circular Economy in Cities" project focuses on urban systems like buildings, mobility, and products, guiding city governments on implementing circular principles and policies. The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity, is a global leader accelerating this transition.
