In this episode of Plastic Podcast, host Clark Marchese interviews Dr. Vassilis Daioglou, a Senior Researcher at the PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency. They explore the potential pathways for reducing plastic's impact on climate change using integrated assessment models. Dr. Daioglou discusses three key strategies: pricing emissions from burning plastics, enhancing recycling efforts, and using bio-based materials. Learn how these models project a net negative carbon emission from plastics and what it means for our future. Dive into the complexities of the circular bioeconomy and discover how innovative approaches could turn plastics from a problem into a climate solution. Tune in for an insightful discussion on sustainability and climate action.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Episode Guests:</strong> Dr. Vassilis Daioglou</p><p>Browse Dr. Daioglou’s publications on <a href=\"https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=vuGzvKcAAAAJ&amp;hl=en\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Google Scholar</a>&nbsp;</p><p>More information about the episode and the <a href=\"https://www.pineforestpods.com/pods/plastic-podcast\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Plastic Podcast</a></p><p><br></p><p>Episode <a href=\"https://www.pineforestpods.com/plastic-podcast-episodes\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Transcript </a>&nbsp;and more information on the <a href=\"http://pineforestpods.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Pine Forest Media </a>Website</p><p>Follow Pine Forest Media on Instagram <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/pineforestmedia/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@pineforestmedia</a></p><p>Hosted, produced, and edited by<a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/cj__marchese/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Clark Marchese&nbsp;</a></p><p>Cover art and PFM logo by<a href=\"https://laurelawong.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Laurel Wong</a>.&nbsp;</p><p>Theme music by <a href=\"https://www.fiverr.com/tadeoceballos?source=gig_page\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Tadeo Cabellos</a>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><br></p>","author_name":"Pine Forest Media"}
