It is based on three principles, driven by design: eliminate waste and pollution, circulate products and materials (at their highest value), and regenerate nature. professionals worldwide.
With the 2021 UN Climate Change Conference (COP26) taking place in Glasgow in November, it’s vital we demonstrate that the transition to a circular economy is key to tackling climate change. That’s why the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Online Network Workshop: COP26 Edition will focus on joining the dots between the circular economy and climate change.
Held online from 26th October to 10th November, we will be exploring how circular economy solutions can address climate change via broadcasts, workshops, and networking sessions.
The COP26 Network Workshop will be held on our Community Platform — where you can find out more about the event and register for the sessions you would like to attend.
