In my sustainability research, I'm giving thought to the potential within circular economic models. By reevaluating what we currently view as "waste," might we uncover overlooked ways to strengthen health systems and steward raw materials? For example, rigorous sterilization could allow multiple safe uses of some equipment. Advanced recycling could recover scarce elements from e-waste. And biodegradable alternatives increasingly replace problematic plastics. Change often happens gradually, through open-minded sharing of ideas. I aim to better understand diverse stakeholder perspectives on these emerging topics. Our common goal is serving communities in environmentally-sensitive ways. There may be untapped circular synergies across industries if we explore challenges and possible solutions together. Our planet's well-being matters deeply to resilient public health. I remain optimistic that cooperation and fresh thinking can maximize benefits for both. #GreenHealth #CircularEconomy #InnovationForImpact #Healthcare #Pharma #Ethiopia #Research

We all know that a better world is only possible if the textile sector embraces traceability, transparency and sustainable metrics. I am happy to see that the transition towards more sustainable business models is already happening in Portugal. Research on biobased materials and new processes, as well as consumer information are the core of a 138 million project led by CITEVE .

🌱 Sustainability isn't just a buzzword—it's a lifeline for the future of biotech manufacturing. 🧬 In an industry where innovation is the heartbeat, integrating sustainable practices into supply chains is no longer optional; it's imperative. As we push the boundaries of science, it's crucial that we do so responsibly, ensuring our advances serve not just the present, but also safeguard the future. Why is this important? For starters, the biotech industry relies heavily on raw materials—some of which are scarce or difficult to source ethically. By adopting a sustainable approach, we can minimize environmental impact, reduce waste, and ensure the ethical procurement of materials. It's about creating a cycle of efficiency that benefits not only our businesses but the planet as a whole. Moreover, consumers are increasingly aware and concerned about the environmental footprint of the products they use. They're voting with their wallets for companies that prioritize sustainability. This shift in consumer consciousness means that sustainable supply chains aren't just good for the earth; they're good for business too. But how do we get there? It starts with transparency—knowing where and how raw materials are sourced and processed. From there, we can implement strategies like circular economy principles, where waste is minimized, and products are designed for a longer lifecycle. Investing in renewable energy sources for manufacturing processes is another key step. It reduces reliance on fossil fuels and cuts down greenhouse gas emissions, aligning with global efforts to combat climate change. Let's not forget about innovation in packaging. Biodegradable and recyclable materials can significantly reduce the environmental impact of product distribution and disposal. The journey to sustainable supply chains is complex, but the rewards are immense. It's about building resilience, fostering innovation, and leading the charge towards a more sustainable future. #SustainableBiotech #GreenManufacturing #InnovationForEarth

Sustainability has emerged as a recurring theme in the alternative proteins industry and is one key driver for consumer consumption. Are alternative protein companies adequately seizing this opportunity? According to this retail expert, there are still untapped opportunities. Mark Field. from Prof. Consulting Group acknowledges that sustainability presents “a clear opportunity in today’s market”, although the industry has yet to fully embrace it. He said, moving forward, companies could adopt initiatives already undertaken by other sectors, such as using sustainable packaging and developing carbon-neutral products. #AlternativeProteins #PlantBased #Sustainability

🌿 𝐒𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐁𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬 🌿 - 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤 10 Welcome to the final week! ♻ Over the past 9 weeks, we've delved into the innovative strategies and impactful measures taken by companies worldwide to combat the ever-pressing challenges of #climatechange - from renewable energy adoption to waste reduction efforts, each week has uncovered inspiring stories of dedication and progress. As we soon reach the final week of our journey through the #sustainability initiatives shaping the corporate landscape, there's no better topic than the timely #circulareconomy (CE). This week, I attended '𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬: 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐄𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐲 𝐄𝐱𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞,' hosted by Innovate UK. The event served as a melting pot of ideas, where visionaries and practitioners gathered together to explore the transformative potential of #circularity. Interesting panel discussions throughout the event, and here are some key highlights to share with you: 🔄Don't get too obsessed with 'Circularity', we need to think about transforming our business model to be more #generative - Sophie Walker from Dsposal 💡CE should be an #easy solution for lazy humans... - Alec Mills from DAME. 📚Learn from the history - we need to figure out how we got into today's mess before talking about the future - Eoin Bailey from CELSA GROUP 💣 Education (what does CE mean to us), data sharing (why can't we share data) & regulation (how can we be circular and compliant at the same time) are the top 3 barriers to CE adoption, and #collaboration 🤝 is the solution! Great pleasure to attend a Sustainable Material ideation session with Jessica Giannotti, the founder of SeaDyes Limited! This UK-based biotech startup is rewriting the rules of textile production, and they're doing it with seaweed. Partnering with Crùbag, a pioneer in ocean-inspired fashion, SeaDyes is on a mission to revolutionize the industry by replacing synthetic dyes with eco-friendly alternatives sourced from seaweed. With nearly 140,000 tons of synthetic dyes wreaking havoc on our planet annually, SeaDyes offers a refreshing solution. By tapping into #Scotland's marine riches, they're crafting vibrant pigments without the pollution. With a palette ranging from soft pinks to rich reds, these natural dyes are as stunning as they are sustainable. Plus, they adhere flawlessly to organic fabrics like silk, cotton, and wool, proving that style and sustainability can go hand in hand. Can we repurpose the technology for other dye solutions used for hair, nails, furniture...? #circulareconomy, #sustainablematerial, #responsibleconsumption, #sustainablestories
