The agricultural industry is responsible for almost three quarters of tropical deforestation. The food system is not only the biggest user of land and water, it’s also the biggest single emitter of greenhouse gases. We know that we already have the ability to feed even the growing population of our planet, but to do so, we need to reconsider what we eat and how we produce it.

In a circular economy, upstream innovation is about tracing a problem back to its root cause and tackling it there. Why deal with a pile of waste when we can prevent it from being created in the first place? Good for the environment, good for the economy: shifting just 20% of plastic packaging from single-use to reuse is an upstream innovation opportunity worth ~USD 10 billion. These are the highlights from the episode that was streamed live on our channels on 30th March. We heard from Apeel, who disrupts food systems by extending the life of fruit and vegetables without any single-use plastic. Then we heard from Enviu who shared their reuse business models and how they are tackling plastic pollution at its source in Indonesia. These highlights make you want more?
