Cities are pivotal for transitioning to a circular economy. Currently, they consume over 75% of natural resources, generate 50% of global waste, and emit 60-80% of greenhouse gases due to a linear "take-make-waste" model. As urban populations grow, the circular economy offers a vital framework to address climate change and post-pandemic recovery, unlocking economic, environmental, and societal benefits.

City governments, leveraging policy, can lead this shift by engaging public and private stakeholders. This episode, powered by Restream, features the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Strategic Partner Cities—London, New York City, and São Paulo—discussing their progress in advancing circular economy solutions.

This B Corp Global Climate Summit session, part of the Day 2 Africa Regional Session, explores the circular economy. This model aims to eliminate waste, boost resource productivity, and redefine how we design and reuse resources. With food waste alone contributing 3.3 billion tonnes of CO2 annually, and the linear economy's flaws exposed by COVID-19, the circular economy offers a new paradigm with an estimated $4.5 trillion annual economic potential by 2030.

The session will delve into applying circular principles to food waste management, how businesses adopt circularity for resilience, and real-world company case studies. It will also discuss the circular economy's potential for a green post-pandemic recovery. Speakers include Grace Wachori, Martha Nalweyiso, Matt Homewood, Daniel Chege, and Rita Atuti.

Felipe Villela of reNature discusses regenerative practices at the farm level and their connection to climate change.

To combat packaging pollution, a circular economy is essential. This involves eliminating unnecessary packaging, innovating new solutions, and ensuring all used packaging is circulated. Achieving this circulation requires dedicated and sufficient funding for collection, sorting, and recycling, as current economics often make these processes unprofitable.

The most effective way to secure this funding is through Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) schemes. Under EPR, companies that introduce packaging to the market are responsible for financing its collection, sorting, and recycling. Beyond funding, EPR offers opportunities to enhance transparency, encourage better packaging design, and reduce carbon emissions.
