SUMMARY:Mapping the Circular Economy of WA – Tour | Talk | Sundowner
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our last event of 2023! \nWe’re excited to host our last event of the year at the Legacy Living Lab (L3) where we will be joined by Roberto Minunno and Josh Hopkins who will be giving us a tour of L3\, its purpose and an insight into the WATCH project – Mapping the circular economy of WA – monitoring the contributions of circularity towards achieving Net Zero: Stage 1. \nWe will finish the event with a sundowner with drinks and nibbles provided. \nThe Legacy Living Lab (L3) is the first building in Western Australia that is both modular and designed for disassembly and reuse. L3 is constructed on recyclable steel footings\, saving 20 tons of concrete. The building is not welded\, glued or fixed\, instead it harnesses nuts and bolts\, spacers and magnets.\nIn three years\, it will be disassembled in a day or two and moved elsewhere. If L3 had been built in a regular fashion\, with end of life going to landfill\, then the greenhouse gas equivalent impact would have been 50 tons. Life cycle assessment for L3 demonstrates only 5 tons of greenhouse gas equivalent impact. Designing for reuse provides a factor 10 environmental improvement. \nRoberto Minunno \nRoberto is a subject matter expert in circular economy and sustainable\, modular building design\, and life cycle assessment. With a background in civil engineering\, Roberto is driven to create solutions to sustainability and circular economy challenges.​ He completed his PhD on the circular economy of buildings at Curtin University\, where\, among other methods\, he developed expertise in applying Life Cycle Assessments and circular economy indicators to products and processes. ​As part of his PhD\, Roberto and the team at Curtin University Sustainable Policy (CUSP) Institute ideated the Legacy Living Lab: a moveable\, disassemble\, modular building\, enabling a deeper understanding and application of the circular economy concerning building materials\, components and operations. The Living Lab is currently in Fremantle where it hosts a hub of research activity and industry collaborations.​ \nJosh Hopkins \nA product and data specialist. His focus is on human-centred digital transformation\, for the betterment of people and the planet. He is also a rese­arch associate at Curtin University Sustainability Policy Institute (CUSP)\, European institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) alumni\, TEDx speaker\, and award-winning entrepreneur. He is the Founding Director of Open Corridor\, a data-driven nonprofit focused on democratising sustainability intelligence.\n\nRun Sheet \n4.00pm – Registrations and Networking \n4.30pm – Tour of L3 and insight into WATCH project \n5.00pm – Sundowner\, networking and nibbles \n6.00pm – Event finish
