PROYECCION CLOSING THE LOOP – CERRANDO EL CIRCULO
“Unless we go to Circular it’s game over for the planet; it’s game over for society”
These are the opening words of Closing the Loop, the world’s first feature-length documentary film on the circular economy
Going “circular” refers to the necessary change from our current take-make-waste linear economy to a borrow-use-return circular economy. The film is directed by a two-time Telly® Award and Emmy® Award winning filmmaker Graham Sheldon and presented by global sustainability expert, Prof. Dr Wayne Visser.
In support of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, the documentary explores five key strategies for achieving circularity – reduce, reuse, recycle, renew and reinvent – by showcasing examples from Europe, Latin America and Africa and featuring insights from experts from the likes of the World Economic Forum and the Universities of Cambridge and Harvard.
Join us for this thought-provoking and powerful documentary. Be aware and together, we can make a difference. This event is held in conjunction with Earth Day 2019.
