We are launching a series of webinars in partnership with the Climate & Clean Air Coalition and with the support of the Global Methane Hub, under the theme: "Transforming Organic Waste Recovery at Scale in the Global South." ?? In our first webinar, we explored the use of the black soldier fly technique for organic waste treatment in Latin America. Experts in the field shared valuable insights and hands-on experience. A big thank you to Melisa Soledad Wilkinson for your participation. Stay tuned for more sessions as we continue to explore transformative solutions for a sustainable future. ??
关于我们
Delterra is an environmental nonprofit on a mission to create a world where human activities protect and restore a healthy planet. Delterra’s founding partner is McKinsey & Company, and its flagship initiative, Rethinking Recycling, works with communities in emerging economies to build rapidly scalable, self-sustaining waste management and recycling ecosystems, that redirect waste into productive use while improving the lives of the people it touches. Rethinking Recycling is on track to bring recycling and waste management services to over 250,000 people in Indonesia and Argentina by 2022, most of whom had no access to recycling solutions before. Its programs have achieved recycling rates of up to 60%, which is higher than those of most US cities. To date, it has improved the livelihoods of more than 450 waste workers, many of whom are marginalized women. In the coming years, Delterra’s goal is to scale Rethinking Recycling to countries across Asia, Latin America and Africa, and add other programs to its portfolio with a view to develop innovative scalable solutions that redesign human systems for the good of people and the planet.

We’re excited to launch a series of webinars in partnership with Climate & Clean Air Coalition and with the support of Global Methane Hub under the theme: “Transformation to Scale Organics Recovery in the Global South.” ?? This initiative addresses the urgent issue of organic waste ending up in landfills, contributing to methane emissions—one of the most potent greenhouse gases. By exploring innovative techniques, we aim to reduce emissions and promote scalable solutions, particularly in regions where source separation is less common. ?? In our first webinar, we explored the black soldier fly technique for organic waste treatment in Latin America. Hear from leading experts who shared valuable insights and hands-on experience. A big thank you to Fran?ois Nolet for his expertise and inspiring contributions to this important conversation! Stay tuned for more sessions as we continue to explore transformative solutions for a sustainable future. ?? #methane #latinamerica #circulareconomy #globalsouth #blacksoldierfly #sustainability

?? Our proven behavior change approach is playing a key role in improving Bali's waste management systems. ??The Delterra team in #Indonesia, together with our collaborators and government partners, conducted large-scale education efforts with households, village leaders, and local businesses—reaching over 3,400 people. ?? Through consistent education and community engagement, we are witnessing firsthand how simple actions, like separating waste at the source, help improve waste management systems and prevent waste from polluting our environment. #behaviorchange #delterra #circulareconomy #systemschange #wastemanagement #recycling?

Transforming #PETPackaging and #Textiles in the US ? A new study, published by Systemiq Ltd. with support from Closed Loop Partners, Eunomia and The Recycling Partnership, outlines a comprehensive roadmap to transition the US PET packaging and polyester textile industries: from the current linear, single-use model towards circular, low-waste and low-emission systems by 2040. ?? Discover the full report here: https://lnkd.in/dcds-Ue5
Consumers in the United States discard over 100 billion PET bottles and over 10 billion polyester garments each year. Found in products ranging from food trays and active wear to carpets, PET and polyester account for 30% of the country’s plastic packaging and textiles use, contributing significantly to plastic waste and greenhouse gas emissions. Yet it also has high potential for circular economy approaches that reduce waste and emissions and create economic opportunities. ?? Today, a new study published by #Systemiq with support from Closed Loop Partners, Eunomia Research & Consulting, and The Recycling Partnership presents a blueprint for transforming PET packaging and polyester textiles in the U.S. If current trends continue, PET/polyester consumption could grow 1.5 times by 2040, creating enough non-recycled waste to fill 750,000 garbage trucks annually and driving GHG emissions. ? The study highlights the potential of proven circular solutions – like reducing avoidable material use, scaling reuse, refill and resale, and expanding mechanical & depolymerization recycling – to deliver significant environmental and economic benefits by 2040: ?? Reduce virgin PET/polyester consumption and waste sent to landfill and incineration by half ?? Increase recycling rates for PET packaging to 70% (from 23%), and for polyester textiles to 19% (from 1%). ?? Cut projected GHG emissions for packaging by ~60% ?? Transforming the PET packaging and polyester textiles industries could create 46,000 new U.S. jobs and generate $4.9 billion/year in additional revenue for U.S. recycling industries. Bold action from policymakers and industry is needed – such as enacting well-designed EPR laws in more states, scaling new recycling technologies, driving industry innovation, and increasing reuse and recycling. ??

The climate needs more risk-takers. ?With #COP29 in full swing, Delterra’s Jeremy Douglas challenges the talk-act chasm, the current climate financing model and the bankability gap. It’s time for bold, risk-taking solutions to match the scale of the climate emergency. ?? Read the article: https://lnkd.in/e-6bGSzh #COP29 #Climate #Delterra

It is great to see the progress achieved in Ellen MacArthur Foundation #GlobalCommitment24 progress report and one of Delterra's projects highlighted! The work is far from over and the scale of the crisis requires more momentum around scalable, systemic solutions. Let's keep driving progress! #plasticstreaty #Delterra?
The Foundation’s #GlobalCommitment24 progress report is now live: https://lnkd.in/eXyFnBRP Over the six years since the Global Commitment launched, led by the Foundation in partnership with the UN Environment Programme, signatories have significantly outperformed their peers in tackling plastic waste. Unprecedented transparency has also been provided on plastic usage and progress towards targets. This shows substantial change is possible and that businesses who haven’t signed up can do, on average, much more than they are doing today. Yet the job is far from done. Plastic pollution is still growing and demands bold action. Explore the progress report here: https://lnkd.in/eXyFnBRP #GlobalCommitment24
