In this episode of Green TV podcast, Shruti and Dr. R. Seetharaman explore how the circular economy is changing the way we think about waste, packaging, products, and everyday consumption. From biodegradable packaging and recycled delivery boxes to shoe trade-ins, clothing buy-back programs, device recycling, composting coffee grounds, biofuel from cooking oil, and hotels donating unused toiletries — this conversation shows how businesses and consumers are becoming part of a smarter, more sustainable system.
The episode breaks down one powerful idea: circular economy is not just about recycling. It is about reducing, reusing, redesigning, and giving materials a second life. Instead of asking “Where do we throw this away?”, the future asks, “Where can this go next?”
