Circular Economy & Future Developments With Dr. Patrick Schroder
Dr. Patrick Schröder is a Senior Research Fellow at Chatham House’s Environment and Society Centre. His work focuses on the global transition to an inclusive circular economy, including trade, investment, and policy coordination in support of the Sustainable Development Goals.
Key questions:
- How does a circular economy differ from the traditional linear model?
- How optimistic should we be about businesses moving in the right direction?
- Why is only 8% of global materials recycled or reused—is that a cost issue?
