Climate Webinar and Conversations for June

Climate Webinar

”Through Crises Toward Transformation:  Systemic Solutions - Transforming to a Circular Economy"

Join us on Sunday, June 13 5 p.m. - 6:30 p.m. EDT via online.
​
In this session, we start examining the pervasive structural issues that shape our world, in this case the basic economic model. Our current practice is a Create-Use-Discard economy that results in ravaged mountains, toxic tailing ponds, abusive child labour, abandoned oil wells, and mountains of trash. 
 
Lugano Kapembwa will share an alternative model: The Circular Economy. From the ground up, once new resources enter this modular system, the model tracks resources and keeps re-using and replacing them as long as possible. Lugano is co-founder and CEO of Loopcycle, a circular technology platform embedding lasting traceability that redefines how customers manage, recover and resell their used products. 

He also worked on a $5 billion project, delivering sustainability and resource efficiency programs as Energy and Environment Lead for Canary Wharf Management, the landlord arm of Canary Wharf Group—owners of the 128 acre estate and mini-city district in London, UK. Lugano holds a M.Sc. in Law and Environmental Science and a B.Sc. in Environmental Science.
