Many sustainability professionals talk about a transition to the circular economy. But what does that look like in practice? To what extent is it different from just recycling?
In this jargon-busting workshop, we’ll explore how to practically apply the ideas of circularity within your organisation. We’ll also dive into why it matters, examining what really goes on in the UK’s waste system, how different materials are made, and the supply chains that affect our resources.
Kirsten Zoe Smith, Net Zero Strategist at Recorra, will guide you through:
- The concepts and thought behind the ‘circular economy’
- The critical decision points to apply circular practices in your business
- How businesses – and the government, are addressing single-use materials
- Expect plenty of visuals, real-world objects, and interactive elements – including a chance to ‘Test the Trainer’! Whether you’re new to sustainability or looking to build on what you’re already doing, this constructive session will help you decipher circularity.
These training sessions are open to all Southwark-based SMEs with fewer than 250 employees. Up to three employees per business are invited to register for each session. In order to join this training, please ensure your organisation has completed the Southwark Climate Collective Registration Form.
