Sustainability and the Circular Economy

For a healthier, happier future, the biosphere and human civilization must coexist in a sustainable way. Sustainability is not limited to economic sectors – it is not limited to industrial, environmental, and energy industries. It is foundational to all aspects of life, and should be built into all industries, from textiles and fashion, to automotives, manufacturing, and construction, to agriculture.
The Altru Sustainability and the Circular Economy Project is an initiative to increase global collaboration among innovators in the field of sustainability. We explore the ways that circular methods can transform the world order to benefit the environment, reduce emissions, support human rights, ensure fair wages, and connect philanthropic endeavors worldwide. 
We convene on January, 21, 2020, in Davos, Switzerland during the Annual Altru Winter Summit to ask:
 
Can we remove plastics from the ocean, revive marine life, and safeguard human life? What technological advancements are available to do just that?
 
How can we transform the fashion supply chain (#2 global pollutant) to manufacture clothes without harming the planet?
