Munich is going one step further: the city is on its way to becoming a Zero Waste City. But what does this concept actually mean? Will Munich become completely waste-free? Carina Koop tells us on behalf of the entire Zero Waste team in the podcast. She is a research associate in the Circular Economy Department at the Wuppertal Institute for Climate, Environment and Energy, where she coordinates the Zero Waste City Munich project.
