Professor Egidio Dansero from the University of Turin illustrates the potential that the textile sector, as well as other sectors, have in the green economy and the circular economy. Starting from his doctoral thesis (which will be dealt with later) on "Local eco-systems", he highlights how different companies, especially regarding circularity, adopted good practices even before they were at the center of the public debate, as they are very convenient (Eg: regenerated cotton or wool): this shows that there is ample room for growth and scalability for both the green economy and the circular economy.
