from Sustainable Brown Girl · host Sustainable Brown Girl
When it’s time for businesses to remodel their offices, what happens to all of the old furniture and textiles? Usually they’re sent to a landfill to rot or be incinerated. Of course that’s not good for the planet. The goal is to create a circular economy where things that are no longer needed can be reused or recycled to be used in a new way or by a different person. That’s exactly what our guest today is facilitating with her business. Today's featured sustainable brown girl is May Al-Karooni a Middle-Eastern woman living in the UK, and founder of Globechain, the biggest ESG reuse marketplace worldwide. On a mission to divert 100 million tonnes of waste from landfill by 2025, Globechain is helping businesses become leaders in circular economy through reuse. In this episode we talk about: - How Globechain is helping businesses divert waste - Why a circular economy is important - How businesses can be more conscious about their waste Support Globechain: www.globechain.com https://www.instagram.com/weareglobechain/ https://www.instagram.com/globechain/ https://twitter.com/globechain Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/o8EbdHmCzHY Donate to Sustainable Brown Girl on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/sustainablebrowngirl Visit the Sustainable Brown Girl Website: https://www.sustainablebrowngirl.com/ Follow Sustainable Brown Girl on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sustainablebrowngirl/ Please leave a review on Apple Podcasts!
