Leveraging Circularity: Science, Business, Community
<https://www.eventbrite.com/e/leveraging-circularity-science-business-and-community-tickets-406444094227>,
co-hosted by Barnard College
<https://barnard.edu/sustainability-climate-action/circular-campus>
and the Columbia
Climate School <https://www.climate.columbia.edu/>, will explore the role
of circularity in building a global, equitable climate response. In
collaboration with the Office of Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine,
the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, and Circular City Week, participants will
discuss the:


   -

   Science behind circularity as a critical tool for reducing global
   emissions,
   -

   Business opportunities and challenges, both globally and locally, and
   -

   Benefits for local communities and workforce development, especially in
   big cities.


The Symposium will take place at Barnard College on Tuesday September 20th,
from 3-5pm. The panel discussion will open the event, followed by remarks
by Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine, roundtable breakout sessions,
and a cocktail / networking hour from 5-6.

NYC policy makers, leaders and climate activists will leave the symposium
with a clear sense of the power of circularity to build equitable climate
solutions and with clear action items relevant to their office or area.
