Tackling Consumption, Can We Break the Linear Model?

The session looks at where we are successfully transitioning from traditional leaner models of production, consumption, and waste to a more circular model of green design, reuse, refill, repair, and leasing, where consumers can make good choices and the systems are accessible, affordable, and performing.

We hear about critical points in a consumer’s lifetime when waste prevention can be minimised and alternative approaches adopted whilst also reflecting on what the Government can do to drive greater resource productivity and circular solutions.
