#C1259_230116_Caroline Dale Ditlev-Simonsen og Walter Stahel: Why we are all part of the circular economy

Season 1, Ep. 1259

How can we teach students and other members of society how to live a sustainable lifestyle? And what is the link between what individuals do and what manufacturers are doing? In this episode Walter Stahel is the guest and will, among other things, talk about circularity for products, profit-dilemmas and the transition from a linear to circular economy.


  • “Circularity has many forms. It exists in nature by evolution, in local circular societies (non-

monetarised), in local circular economies (monetarised), in the circular industrial economy

and in the performance economy.”
