New Year, New Episode – But First, Let’s Rewind.
𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰. 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲. 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲. – 𝙔𝙚𝙖𝙧-𝙀𝙣𝙙 𝙍𝙚𝙘𝙖𝙥 𝙀𝙥𝙞𝙨𝙤𝙙𝙚 (2025)
We’re kicking off 2026 with something different: a raw, reflective conversation about the episodes that changed how we think about circularity.
Three people. Three generations. Three completely different favorite episodes:
Katarina (our brilliant marketing lead, now finally on mic) chose Voices of the Ocean — where individual action becomes global data. Ocean Conservancy proved that beach cleanups aren’t symbolic — they’re strategic.
John picked Chemical Recycling Europe and Antero’s Legacy — long-term vision over short-term ROI. Antero’s story showed us that innovation is built by people, not just technology.
Mat went with BASF’s Mass Balance and WILDPLASTIC’s Ground Game — the two sides of circularity that can’t exist without each other. BASF showed us industrial transformation isn’t greenwashing when it’s certified, audited, and scaled, while WILDPLASTIC reminded us that humility + commitment > flashy headlines.
And yes, we end by singing our jingle. Badly. You’re welcome.
Looking ahead to 2026:
We’re doubling down. More episodes. Tighter focus. One red thread: circularity in action.
We’re diving into:
Plastics & health – the risks we can’t ignore
Bio-based innovation – beyond the hype
Systemic change – from waste collectors to chemical giants
This isn’t just a podcast. It’s a platform for the innovators, engineers, founders, and policymakers who refuse to wait for perfect solutions when practical ones exist today. We’re here to amplify the voices shaping a circular future.
