ABOUT THIS EPISODE
How can better information help us keep critical raw materials in circulation? In this episode, Sarah speaks with Jessica Green, an expert in traceability, circularity and digital product passports, about the role of data in building a more circular economy.
Jessica explains why circularity is about much more than recycling, and why products need to be designed with repair, reuse, remanufacturing and material recovery in mind. She explains how digital product passports could help us understand where materials come from, what products contain, how they perform throughout their lives, and what happens to them at end of life.
The conversation also explores the challenges around data quality, verification, trust, regulation and international standards, and how better traceability could create greater accountability across global supply chains.
