Closing the loop: the case for a circular EU economy

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, Rebecca Christie
invites Heather Grabbe, Luca Léry Moffat and Janez Potočnik to
talk about turning Europe’s economy circular by making resources
go further. They discuss the environmental and economic cases for
Europe to use fewer resources, and why moving to a circular
economy is essential in the fight against climate change. They
also discuss examples of companies that have found ways of
reducing waste, and the reasons why more firms don’t make
resource efficient decisions.
