What happened to England’s proposed Circular Economy Growth Plan, and will it ever see the light of day?
In this episode of The Reloop Brief, Libby Peake, senior fellow and head of resource policy at Green Alliance, discusses her work on the government’s Circular Economy Task Force and how political changes and repeated delays have left the plan’s future uncertain.
The conversation also explores what businesses need from government to invest in a more circular economy, the challenges facing packaging EPR and why policy must look beyond recycling to focus more strongly on reduction and reuse.
Finally, Libby shares the experiences behind her blog, ‘Buying five reused items saved me £3.5k’, and considers how online platforms can make buying used and refurbished products easier, more affordable and more appealing.
