By 2050, Asia's population is projected to reach 5.5 billion, driving a 50% increase in material demand. If we don't start utilizing agro-residues and by-products, how will we meet this growing need? Embedding sustainability into the core of every business is the urgent shift we must make.

🌟 𝑷𝒂𝒏𝒆𝒍 𝑫𝒊𝒔𝒄𝒖𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏: 𝑪𝒊𝒓𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒂𝒓 𝑫𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒈𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒚 #ICEF2024🌟 At #ICEF2024 on Day 1 held at India Habitat Center, New Delhi, we delved  into the pivotal role of #CircularDesign and #Materiality in shaping a sustainable future. Moderated by Ms. Monika Shrivastava from JSW Cement, who guided the panel through discussions on sustainability, policy needs, and practical implementation of circular economy principles. Our panelists provided profound insights into redesigning products and systems for a #CircularEconomy. The panel brought together industry leaders and experts to discuss the role of #circulardesign and #materiality in achieving #sustainabledevelopment goals (#SDGs). The session focused on innovative approaches to eliminate waste, utilize by-products, and promote regenerative practices in various industries. Mr. Padmakar Pandey from ABFRL shared their Re-Earth Initiative, focusing on #ResourceEfficiency, #ClimateAction, sustainable raw materials, and chemical safety. Ms. Manjri Gopalan of Hewlett Packard Enterprise emphasized the importance of modular and repairable IT products, promoting longevity and reducing waste. Mr.Vaibhav Rathi from GIZ India emphasized the need for a life cycle assessment (#LCA) at the core of materiality considerations and discussed successful implementations such as the use of fly ash in construction and the operation of over 20 construction and demolition (C&D) waste plants. Ms. Sunitha Varadan of LoopM Alternatives also highlighted innovative agro-based packaging solutions and projects aimed at reducing food wastage. The panel emphasized the critical need to design out waste and pollution from the very beginning of the product lifecycle. This involves rethinking how products are made and used, ensuring that materials are utilized to their fullest extent. Key outcomes included actionable strategies for #WasteReduction, fostering #Innovation in material use, and enhancing consumer engagement in #SustainablePractices. The panel underscored the need for policy support and consumer education to drive the shift towards a sustainable, circular economy. The discussion underscored the importance of aligning efforts with SDGs 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure), and 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities). These goals are pivotal for fostering sustainable practices across industries and ensuring long-term environmental and economic benefits.

Last week brought 60 of us from diverse background together to discuss one major topic: How can we initiate cross border collaboration to overcome Environment and Societal Challenges? A round table discussion organised by the Centre for Responsible Business and representatives from the European Union focused on building partnerships between India and the EU for sustainability was held last week in Bengaluru. The main goals were to collaborate across borders in four key areas: Gender, Water, Climate, and Biodiversity. The importance of collaboration between academia, industry, and across borders was stressed to tackle environmental and societal issues. We believe that communities with shared goals will play a significant role in sustainability in the coming decade. Special thanks to the Centre for Responsible Business for initiating this wonderful community-driven initiative to bring us all together. ##community #India #europeanunion #sustainabledevelopmentgoals #responsiblebusiness LoopM Alternatives
