Listen "S7E1: The Future of the Economy is… Circular? A Case Study with Tiny Earth Toys "
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to Season 7! This season we are looking at a case study for circular economy and climate education. Join us on this much shorter season for bite size glimpses into these sustainability topics!
Is the age of mass consumption upon us? Judging from the quantities of overconsumption and consumer waste that the Earth is seeing daily, it may appear so. Yet as products are being produced and discarded at unsustainable speeds, a counter economic model is emerging. The solution to a more sustainable future may be found with a circular economy in which material lifespans are maximized and economic activities are regenerative.
On today’s episode we hear from Rachel Classi, founder and CEO of Tiny Earth Toys, a business that has approached children’s toys and early education tools from a circular economic angle. Hear directly from a sustainable business owner on the process of smart business model innovation, and think through the steps you could take to engage with sustainability initiatives in your own life!
