About this listen

 Jonathan Pereira, the Executive Director of Plant Chicago, will be joining us to discuss the concept of a Circular Economy. In a circular economy, conventional waste streams from one process are repurposed as inputs for another, creating a circular, closed-loop model of material reuse. We'll discuss how this community of businesses, at Plant Chicago, collaborates in this net zero system. The diverse businesses that comprise the community include a bread store, coffee shop, brewery, and more. Their mission is to change the way we, as a city, think about our food and our environment. To develop circular economies of food production, energy conservation and material reuse, while empowering people of all backgrounds to make their cities healthier and more efficient. Plant Chicago offers tours and hands-on workshops. Plant Chicago is happy to host school field trips or even visit classrooms to teach students about the science and social value behind their work.
