  1. Hey there! Thanks for the podcast. An interesting read is the book Cradle-to-Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things. The authors believe it is possible to maintain today’s living standards without harming eco systems and their occupants as long if we change the way we design our products (closed-loop, cradle-to-cradle) and the way we offer them to consumers (lease rather than buy). Ideally this means we keep using the rare metals indefinitely, nothing is burned or landfilled. It would be interesting to mix this with lowtech.
