Multistreaming with https://restream.io/?ref=nVVND Are some of the words and terms we use within the circular economy narrative creating a misleading understanding of what the concept actually is or could be? And will this then have a direct implication on how it is realised on the ground? Challenges of implementing a circular economy are a frequent discussion point amongst businesses, policy makers and other organisations as they grapple with the reality of how to actually ‘do it’. Just how do you make even the tiniest step towards enabling a seismic shift to a totally different economic system? What barriers need to be overcome? These ever-growing conversations, articles and reports often point to the obvious challenges posed by things like existing finance mechanisms, government strategy and policy, reverse supply chains and infrastructure, or customer behaviour patterns. Whilst these are all important of course, there is a challenge that is not often mentioned, yet lurks within many of these conversations – words and terminology. The group will look at why deciding on the words and terms that you use to describe the circular economy might be as important to the transition as finding alternatives to single use plastic. In a light-hearted, conversational setting the group will touch on words, phrases and terms that they have found, over the last 10 years, to be either friend or foe.

golefttv — March 26, 2009 — Its been 20 years since the Exxon Valdez oil tanker spilled into the Prince William Sound, and dumped almost 11 million gallons of oil into the water. But even after two decades of trials and environmental cleanup, conditions are still dismal for the residents who have been trying to get justice. And to make things even worse, we still don't have a full understanding of what really happened when the tanker hit the reef. And that's where our good friend and investigative reporter, Greg Palast comes in. Greg has been covering this story since the start, and it was the lack of real investigations and inquiries into this disaster that kickstarted his career in journalism. Ring of Fire's Mike Papantonio talks with Palast about the true history of the Exxon Valdez.
