July 02, 2021

Cities annually produce one billion tons of organic waste, often dumped at high cost, causing pollution and emissions. Insects offer a proven, sustainable solution, efficiently converting this waste into food, feed, and nutrient-rich compost. Companies like Sanergy and InsectiPro show how insects transform waste into profit, supporting soil fertility and a circular food economy.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity, accelerates the transition to a circular economy. Explore our Food initiative, Circular Economy in Africa, and featured companies InsectiPro and Sanergy. Subscribe to our YouTube channel, visit our website and social media for more.
