Christina Dornack and Leonie Dahlmann from the IAK are guests on the "TrashTalk" podcast
Why does the construction sector account for more than half of our waste—and how can we change that?
In a new episode of the“TrashTalk” podcast, Prof. Dr. Christina Dornack and Leonie Dahlmann discussed the future of the circular economy in the construction and building sector.
The discussion focused on how the construction and building sectors can be made more circular and what policy framework conditions are necessary to achieve this. This statement is the result of close collaboration with many dedicated colleagues on the German Advisory Council on the Environment.
