This week, Paul is joined by Tim Danson, Technical Director of Sustainability at WSP<\/a> in the UK. Many of you will know WSP, but if you don\u2019t, WSP is one of the world\u2019s leading engineering professional services firms, with over 60,000 employees across 40+ countries.<\/p>\n

In today\u2019s conversation, Tim talks about how in 2022, humans used a year\u2019s worth of the earth\u2019s resources in just seven months and how he believes the circular economy can help us. Tim\u2019s passion for the circular economy and how it can change the way we work as a sector is evident, and we talk about the business case for us all moving towards it. <\/p>\n
