The weather we’re enjoying today is probably as stable and predictable as it’s going to get. From here, the effects of climate change become more visible and more disruptive. In the UK, that means more intense storms, higher flood risk in winter, and real threats to homes and infrastructure. Summers will get hotter and drier, putting pressure on food production and systems we take for granted. And beyond the UK, in many of the places we travel through, the impacts will be even more severe. Our kids will grow up dealing with consequences that are hard to fully grasp today. That’s where Circularity First comes in.

We work with organisations to reduce their environmental impact in ways that also improve profitability. Our focus is technology, both how it’s used and how it’s made. Tech is one of the fastest growing sources of carbon emissions globally, but it’s also one of the biggest levers for change if used properly. We usually start with education, helping teams understand what it actually takes to produce the technology they rely on, and where the biggest opportunities are to do things differently. From there, we integrate sustainability into existing business strategy and help bring the whole organisation along on that journey, and actually help deliver the technology in more sustainable ways. We advise governments, enterprises, and service providers, but the core idea is simple: you can reduce impact and run a better business at the same time. Founder Anthony Levy will be in Leg 15.
