Why should retailers embrace the circular economy? | Conversations from Climate Week New York

Recorded live at Climate Week New York, in this episode we ask ‘why should retailers embrace the circular economy?’ The global food system is responsible for a third of greenhouse gas emissions, and is vulnerable to supply chain shocks. Our guests discuss why circularity must be easier, more convenient, and more irresistible than the linear option, and why retailers and brands need to invest in shared solutions to scale a circular economy for food. Joining the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Executive Lead for Retail, Reniera O’Donnell, are: Nate Hurst, Chief Sustainability Officer at Visa Burgess Davis, Senior Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer for North America at PepsiCo Scot Case, Vice President of Sustainability for the National Retail Federation Learn more about retail and the circular economy: https://www.ellenmacarthurfoundation....
