CREST Research Director, Professor Julieanna Powell-Turner, is speaking at this MMBEN event.

In a world with a circular economy, waste wouldn’t exist and resources wouldn’t be sent to landfill. This currently isn’t possible for many businesses, but taking on a more circular approach to the issue of waste can be hugely beneficial to both the planet and your business.
