At one point a wise person in the room picked up the mike and said this...(more or less...)   "when you have a big challenge in front of you - such as the transformation to the circular economy for flex pack - the first and biggest problem is not knowing what to do, where to start from.   Over the last years the work done in CEFLEX - A Circular Economy for Flexible Packaging has given us the answer. We (aka the flex pack value chain) now know what needs to be done.   The second biggest problem is knowing how exactly to fix it. This is a tough one, but I can tell you…we are all here trying very hard to figure this out…and quickly”   That resonated with me - and that’s why the platform offered by CEFLEX is so valuable. Like minded folks, willing to work together sharing an uncomfortable (and much needed) sense of urgency. so yes, I am in! let's figure this out!   #PPRW #circulareconomy #recyclability #packaging

What's the real cost of your organization's Scope 3 Emissions? It's often the largest contributor to a company's carbon footprint (all indirect emissions upstream and downstream i.e. Business travel, waste generated in operations and disposal, purchased goods and services, Transportation and distribution tied to suppliers and customers, Capital goods, investments, and franchises, Leased assets, Emissions from the use of a product or service sold, Product’s end of life (when it’s no longer useful), etc. Everyone has the responsibility—and the opportunity—to embrace sustainability and webinars led by technology experts in the ESG space like Noah and the Sustain.Life team are enabling us to shape a better tomorrow. We'll discuss the how on Wednesday!
