Wasted Tales
Hello and welcome, you’re listening to Wasted Tales, where we will be bringing you into the lives and minds of waste and other materials within the circular economy. My name is Kim Poldner and I am a professor of Circular Business at the Centre of Expertise Mission Zero where we conduct integrated research to come up with regenerative solutions for a more sustainable future. By making inanimate objects key protagonists in this podcast, we aim to provide an alternative perspective to the circular economy discourse. What do these materials and artefacts experience? How do they view us humans in processes of recycling, repair and repurpose? And what can we learn from them?
