Circular economy aims to decouple resource consumption from economic growth. But will that be enough to create a sustainable future? Our guest today thinks degrowth must be part of the solution. In this week’s episode of the Getting in the Loop circular economy podcast, I speak with Ekaterina Chertkovskaya. In today’s episode: Ekaterina explains the concept of degrowth and shares examples of what this could mean in practice by presenting possible alternatives focused on openness and relocalization. She also explains why we should be wary of placing the blame on individuals and private citizens when it comes to sustainability - and what we can actually do to address this issue.
