Ken Webster, Head of Learning at The Ellen MacArthur Foundation (UK), introduces the concept of a circular economy. This model is crucial given the depletion of cheap fossil fuels and key materials, alongside rising populations and growing anxieties concerning water resources, food production, and harmful wastes.
