Unsustainable, extractive farming practices have led to environmental and public health crises, depleting nature and driving climate change and biodiversity loss. With agriculture using half our land, farmers are crucial stewards. We must shift from extractive systems to regenerative, sustainable, and circular approaches.

In this talk, The Prince of Wales supports an international framework for measuring farm sustainability. A long-time advocate for sustainability, he has championed British farming and a more sustainable food future, raising awareness for critical issues.

James Gifford, Executive Director of the U.N. Principles for Responsible Investment, notes

James Gifford, Executive Director of the U.N. Principles for Responsible Investment, notes the global financial crisis has prompted firms to consider environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors for long-term sustainability. He calls relying solely on financial metrics "a bygone paradigm," urging leaders to address short-term investment strategies.

Dr. Gifford is a Senior Fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School's Initiative for Responsible Investment, researching sustainable investment in emerging markets and integrating positive impact into mainstream strategies.

This is a recorded session from the B Corp Global Climate Summit, Day 2 - Africa Regional Session.

The circular economy is an economic model focused on eliminating waste and inefficiency and promoting greater resource productivity. The carbon footprint of wasted food is approximately 3.3 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) released into the atmosphere on an annual basis. The shift to a circular economy is not only about managing waste, but it presents a new economic paradigm for rethinking how we design, use, and reuse our resources (both products and services), with an estimated economic output potential of USD $4.5 trillion per year by 2030.

The COVID-19 pandemic showed in many cases all the drawbacks of the present economic model- the linear economy. 

The session will focus on:

- What is the essence of applying circular economy principles in managing food waste?

- How are businesses involved in food adopting circularity principles and business models to become more resilient over the long term?

- Hear from two companies the story of how they introduced circular principles in their business activities: the vision, their approach and the challenges they encountered.

- Potential of the circular economy strategy for a green recovery post pandemic?

Speakers: Grace Wachori, Martha Nalweyiso, Matt Homewood, Daniel Chege, Rita Atuti

Engineering must evolve to address complex global challenges like climate change. We need a new generation of "Zero Carbon Engineers" who can blend creativity, systems thinking, and behavioral science to develop solutions that balance societal and natural needs. This talk explores their importance and essential skills.

David Rooney, Professor of Chemical Engineering at Queen's University Belfast, directs the Sustainable Energy Research Group and Bryden Centre. His research focuses on sustainable energy and materials, and he advises industry and government on Zero Carbon technologies. He also holds the position of Dean of Internationalisation and Reputation for the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, with extensive international experience.

Taylor McKinnon, an accidental artist and dedicated activist, serves as the Southwest Director for the Center for Biological Diversity. He oversees efforts to protect wildlands and endangered species, spearheading campaigns to end federal fossil fuel leasing and ban uranium mining around the Grand Canyon.

In this artist talk, McKinnon explores nature photography as a practice of natural history, intertwining observation, art, love, and activism. He will discuss his process in the field and Lightroom, including the compositional freedom of long lenses and developing a minimalist style absent art theory. McKinnon will also share abstract landscape photography not featured in the exhibit.
