Innovations that help make the circular economy a reality

Graham Watson

17th August 2021

This World Economic Forum clip highlights three things that are making the circular economy more achievable

Eon is making digital ID for clothing to track its use, HelloTractor is looking at encouraging African farmers to share expensive farm machinery, and Wasteless is using AI to reduce food waste.

All should foster less waste, and move us closer to sustainable development and the circular economy. Remember, as the clip points of one-third of all food produced currently doesn't even reach the plate.
