Fresh perspectives on zero waste within the African context. Zero waste is often seen as exclusively for the affluent eco-conscious individuals of high-income countries but with successful implementation, a zero waste system can truly embrace traditional knowledge and existing practices of preservation in Africa. Tune in as we discover the world of zero waste, the organisations championing this system of waste management in Africa, as well as delving into the environmental issues threatening our people and planet.Solid Gold Podcasts and Audiobooks Ciencia Ciencias Geológicas Ciencias Sociales

  • Reuse at the Heart of a Robust Plastics Treaty

    Reuse at the Heart of a Robust Plastics Treaty
    Jun 30 2025
    In this episode, host Merrisa Naidoo (GAIA/BFFP Africa Plastics Program Manager) talks to Farima Tidjani (adansonia.green | Coordinator & GAIA Africa Reuse Campaigner), Marian Ledesma (Greenpeace Southeast Asia - Philippines | Zero Waste Campaigner), Miquel Roset (Retorna.org | Director & Spokesperson), and Mason Hines (PR3: The Global Alliance to Advance Reuse, RESOLVE | Senior Program Manager) about implementable solutions — reuse at the heart of a robust plastics treaty.

    Globally, over 300 million tons of plastic is produced, and a lot of it is for single use. We cannot escape plastic pollution, nor can we recycle our way out of this global crisis. Our planet, our economies, our health, and our communities require urgent action through long-lasting systemic approaches such as REUSE & REFILL, in order to reduce plastic production, meet our climate goals, stay within our planetary boundaries, create green jobs, and honour local knowledge.
