Establish – Details, episodes & analysis

On this episode of Establish, our host Mars Moreira speaks with sustainable business expert Tamara Shulman on all things circular economy. The circular economy, as Tamara explains, prioritizes reusability and regeneration of products at the end of their life. Instead of throwing a ripped t-shirt in the trash, a circular economy approach would find ways to reuse all the scraps in the fabric. Tamara also describes that instances of circular economy are actually more common than we may think. Tune in and hear a great conversation between Mars and Tamara to hear all about this system fits into the climate activism space.
