About this Summit Location
Nairobi is an urban area of Kenya that serves as a hub for promoting the circular economy through tree planting. It is situated in an environment where significant carbon emissions are generated by vehicles, schools, and the community as a whole. This setting aligns perfectly with the specific element/theme of the Summit, emphasizing the importance of addressing environmental challenges and fostering sustainable practices in urban areas.
About the WIND Summit
WIND represents circularity and the potential to transform our global economy from one of extraction and waste of natural resources (linear), to one of continuous reuse and recycling (circular). Plastics, mostly derived from petroleum products, is one product that is causing problems in our environment and is contributing to climate change. This WIND Summit is convening Planeteers in communities around the world to develop campaigns to turn the tide on plastic.
