Food Talks: How can the circular economy move us to better food systems?
7 Jun 2022 18:00 19:00
Join the latest event in our #FoodTalks series to explore how circular economy thinking can move us to food systems that are better for people, animals and the planet.
In this ONLINE event, we will consider what a circular economy means in relation to food and farming, and key questions including:
- What role can a circular economy for food play in helping a green recovery?
- What examples already exist of organisations doing ‘in the round’ circular economy thinking in practice?
- How can we overcome barriers to the wider uptake of circular approaches?
- And what practical actions can we all, as food citizens, take?
These are some of the pressing questions we’ll dive into in this event, which takes place just ahead of Circular Economy Week 2022. Speakers include:
- Josh Newton from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation
- George Young (@farminggeorge), a leading farmer striving for circular farming systems
- Jo Liang (@WafflesnCoffeee), Co-Founder of CauliBox
Hear insights from our expert speakers and share your own views. Our speakers will be announced soon.
