Going “Zero Waste”: promoting sustainable consumption and production in cultural heritage training
This year marks 500 years since the death of Leonardo da Vinci (1452 – 1519), who in response to observing the natural world is believed to have written, “there is no such thing as waste.” The by-product of one industry should become the starting point for another. His words are eerily pertinent for framing an understanding of sustainable consumption and production in the modern world.
