Reuse Stories from Around the World - Part 1
Listen now
Description
In this episode of Redemption, we explore the often-overlooked but essential practice of reuse. Although reuse ranks higher than recycling in the waste hierarchy, it is frequently left out of discussions about large-scale solutions to the plastics crisis and landfill overflow. Our global guests—advocates and pioneers—share insights on how reuse is being implemented across various economic and cultural landscapes. From grassroots efforts in Southeast Asia to innovative city projects in the U.S., we highlight how communities are leveraging reuse for a more sustainable future. In Reuse Stories from Around the World – Part 1, hear inspiring stories from Perpetual, and Greenpeace Philippines, demonstrating that real change happens when we rethink how we use materials. Stay tuned as we continue to share more global stories that spotlight this growing revolution.
