Confronted by the global challenges that we face today, doing less harm is simply not good enough. We need an economy that not only restores, but improves the world we live in. A number of complementary visions of a regenerative future have emerged. In this conversation we bring key voices together and explore the circular economycircular economyA systems solution framework that tackles global challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss, waste, and pollution. It is based on three principles, driven by design: eliminate waste and pollution, circulate products and materials (at their highest value), and regenerate nature. as a framework to make decisions that solve lots of problems at the same time - reshaping the economy to become regenerative by design.
