We believe the future is circular. Circular thinking reimagines the relationship between the economy and the natural world – and aims to turn waste into something valuable. - @RUBICONMethod @ #ShadowSummit #RubiconESG #EnvironmentalInnovation #CircularEconomy

A5 In its purest form, a circular economy generates no waste. That also means conserving valuable resources. To be resilient is to use our resources sustainably. #Concordia20 @ConcordiaSummit @Rubicon x.com/ConcordiaSummit/status…

Last question! Q5 - How does implementing a #CircularEconomy help companies to be more resilient? #Concordia20 @Rubicon

A4 If you have set #ESG goals but don’t see progress, consider doing a materiality assessment. It is important to benchmark along the way and assess whether some goals have shifted or whether others are now more important. x.com/ConcordiaSummit/status…

Q4 - What advice would you give to companies struggling to meet their #ESG goals? #Concordia20 @Rubicon

A3 Circular thinking reimagines the relationship between the economy and the natural world. Perception of “waste” must change. Waste becomes “resource” through circular design or regenerative systems. #Concordia20 @ConcordiaSummit @Rubicon x.com/ConcordiaSummit/status…

Q3 - How can we implement a #CircularEconomy post-pandemic? #Concordia20 @Rubicon

A2 Companies and stakeholders must first recognize that sustainable practices vs business success is a false choice. Data shows that ESG-led strategies are good business and good FOR business. #Concordia20 @Concordia20 @Rubicon x.com/ConcordiaSummit/status…

Q2 - For everyone: How can companies adapt to achieve environmental and #sustainability goals during the pandemic? #ESG #Concordia20 @Rubicon

A1 We launched the report in the midst of the pandemic. Despite this being a hard time for businesses, we’ve received exciting feedback about the ideas. Companies are recommitting to their #ESG goals. #Concordia20 @ConcordiaSummit

A1 The report details the global “waste wakeup call” and @Rubicon’s mission to end waste. We envision a #circualareconomy built on extending the life of materials and opposing the “take make waste” model. #Concordia20 @ConcordiaSummit x.com/ConcordiaSummit/status…

This first question will be directed at @Rubicon. You released its first #ESG report in May. What were the main findings, and how has been received by the industry? #Concordia20

Single-use plastic is a serious recycling challenge and a danger to our ecosystems. We are so excited to see retailers - including Rubicon partners @Walmart, @kroger, and @cvspharmacy! - coming together to tackle this issue. x.com/rrecycling/status/1286…

Major retailers including @Target, @Walmart and others are working with Closed Loop Partners on a $15 million project to explore alternatives to traditional plastic bags in the retail sector. bit.ly/2ZRPzF0
