Global warming, climate change, ecosystem damage, and pollution are all linked to our current take-make-waste production model. In line with the ethos of the 2020 United Nations Climate Change Conference, COP26, many organisations and governments started to integrate circular economy and sustainability targets into their agendas. However, a lot has to be done to move from pledges and planning to actual implementation.

In this episode of the Anticipate Podcast, May Faraj, Senior Advisory Director - Environment & Sustainability at WSP in the Middle East is joined by Dr Sherien Elagroudy, Founding Director of Egypt Solid Waste Management Center of Excellence to uncover the current realities of our linear production model. The episode also explores the enormous economic opportunities that we can achieve with the transition to economic circularity.
