The Circular Economy
Peter Day talks with the record breaking yachtswoman, Ellen MacArthur, and Unilever's Paul Polman, about their work promoting the circular economy where is waste reduced to zero.
As Dame Ellen MacArthur circumnavigated the globe she got first-hand knowledge of the finite nature of the world鈥檚 resources. When she retired from sailing she created a foundation to promote the concept of a circular economy - where resources are reused and waste reduced to zero. Many companies around the world, including some of the biggest like Unilever, are responding to her ideas. Peter Day talks to the record breaking sailor and Paul Polman, the CEO of the Anglo Dutch company, about why these concepts are so important and how businesses can take them on board.
