Thank you very much for presenting a good overview on the topic. Really interesting explanation.

Good lecture ! Applying principles of Carbon Sequestration as well as encompassing Geoengineering for change could alter the foundations!

As I see it, working towards a circular economy is an attempt to create a closed system. Making efforts toward this end is both appealing and necessary. However, as you mentioned, the Laws of Thermodynamics, more specifically the principle of entropy will prevent a linear economy from ever being fully bent into a closed loop. Nevertheless, there is a way that we can come close to reaching this goal. We could reduce our standard of living down to the point of living in the forests and on the savannahs as hunters and gatherers just as our ancestors did. We could live as beasts among other animals in the more circular economy called the eco-system. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed your video and appreciate your efforts in addressing this important concept.

Great video, as all the others! It would be interesting to explore urban/territorial projects that use urban metabolism analyses in order to improve the sustainability of the project itself. One example is Circular Buiksloterham in The Netherlands. Anyway, bravissimi!

Fantastic summary of what is quite a complex topic. The degrowth perspective appeals to me because it does oppose this continual growth and competitive attitude we seem to have in the global economy and has led to things like the food system producing enough food to end food poverty and yet its not distributed fairly, it flows with the market, and extracts from populations and degrades landscapes for the coin etc I am doing some reading into the repair movement as a potential avenue for tackling the consumer mentality, have you got any reccomended reading or resoucres I could look into?

Thanks a lot Samuel! Hmm not sure I have a good recommendation. Perhaps look at the "right to repair" movement and there are some important players for instance iFixit, HoP (Halte à l'Obsolescence Programmée), and many more

Thank you for the overview! Could you share the reference to the study you mention at the end when comparing the policies of Brussels, Paris and London? Cheers!

Thanks for your comment Sebastien. The study mentioned was part of a book chapter that is not published (had been in press for a number of years) see difusion.ulb.ac.be/vufind/Record/ULB-DIPOT:oai:dipot.ulb.ac.be:2013/282802/Details.

Je viens de découvrir ta chaîne YT. En parlant d'économie circulaire en ville, à tu déjà abordé la question de l'assainissement ? La nourriture est quand même le 1er des ''intrants'' de la ville, et les excréments une resource considérable à ''circularise'' dans le bassin d'approvisionnement des villes...

Bonjour, merci pour ce commentaire. On a un épisode de podcast qui parle du bouclage des flux d'azote et de phosphore dans les et donc qui lie les enjeux d'assainissement et d'alimentation.
