Internationally experienced consultant Devni Acharya has been appointed to drive Arup’s work across climate change, the circular economy and resource and waste management in Asia Pacific.  Based in Singapore, she will work with clients to navigate the climate crisis using circular economy approaches and to developing strategic net zero programmes.  Devni has consulted on projects across the UK, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia Pacific, advising cities, investors and developers on circular economy projects as they work towards their net zero carbon targets and total value ambitions.

An award-winning livestock sustainability consultant and animal scientist has begun a new role – as Harper Adams University’s ABP Chair in Sustainable Beef Production.
Professor Jude Capper’s new role will see her working with both Harper Adams University – where she completed both her undergraduate degree in Agriculture with Animal Science and her PhD – and with ABP, one of the leading firms working in the meat and agri-food sectors in the British Isles.

The circular economy isn’t new but the importance of thinking that way is now more important than ever. I met someone the other night after a talk I gave who is committed to green creating single-use items that gradually decompose so that these products aren’t sitting in garbage piles for eternity. Her bags decompose in 180 days vs 1000 years. That’s smart.
