Leather and the circular (or Blue) economy

About this essay: Essay number 11 in the Nothing to Hide series highlights a change that is taking place not just in business thinking but in business models, through the story of serial environmental entrepreneur Dr Gunter Pauli, founder of Zero Emissions Research and Initiatives and author of ‘The Blue Economy’ in 2009 and revised version ‘The New Blue Economy’ in 2015. Dr Pauli says he chose to put ‘Blue’ in the title because “green is no longer enough’’.
