How do we balance the need for economic growth against our rightful environmental concerns? In this talk, part of our World in 2050 series, Elisa Lanzi, Senior Economist, OECD, Environment Directorate joins us virtually via live stream and provides an overview of how projected socio-economic trends to 2050 link to changes in the state of the environment.
Taking in air quality policies, policies to reduce plastic pollution, the plastic lifecycle, and policies to ensure a more circular use of material resources, Eliza Lanzi utilises her vast experience to demonstrate how our environmental and economic needs can no longer afford to be seen as antithetical to one another.
