Katie is releasing her new book 'Wasted' and her podcast series, Circular with Katie Treggiden. To coincide with these releases, I was interviewed alongside Hugo Tagholm @hugotagholm CEO of @surfersagainstsewage; Lucy Siegle ethical journalist and broadcaster @theseagull; Seetal Solanki designer, author and educator @seetalsolanki.
The podcast: "A podcast exploring the intersection of craft, design and sustainability. Join me as I talk to the thinkers, doers, and makers of the circular economy. These are the people who are challenging the linear take-make-waste model of production and consumption – and working towards something better. In this series, we’re talking about waste.

Her new book celebrates 30 optimistic and enterprising designers, makers and manufacturers who use waste as their primary resource, offering a rare glimpse into the world they inhabit. Accompanying these profiles, six in-depth and thematic essays will explore the societal, cultural and environmental implications of their work. As natural resources dwindle, designers are exploring the potential of increasingly plentiful waste streams to become the raw materials of the future — turning the legacy of the linear ‘take-make-waste’ model into something new, better and more circular. Wasted is available to pre-order* on Amazon now and will be in your local independent bookshop from 08 October 2020.
