Lecture on the topic of circular economy in the Biosphere Region BGL

On February 29, 2024, Cornelia Huis, a doctoral student of Professor Vallaster, delivered a lecture at the administrative office of the Biosphere Region BGL. In front of approximately 15 employees, she addressed the question of whether the circular economy leads us to a greener world and explored how it might do so.

The focus of the lecture was on the importance of sustainable consumption and the efficient use of resources. Through specific examples from companies that embrace circular economy principles, the opportunities and challenges of this sustainable approach were conveyed.

The event provided a platform for stimulating discussions, where participants exchanged experiences, thoughts, and ideas about the possibilities offered by a circular economy. Particularly intense discussions revolved around practical implementation and the potential benefits of this approach.
