GOSHpods goes Green S4 - Episode 4: A Systems approach for sustainable products: The Comfort Loop Project by Podcasts from the GOSH Learning Academy published on 2026-04-10T10:42:49Z In this episode of the Plastics Podcast, we explore the Comfort Loop Project — a systems‑level effort to tackle the enormous global waste created by absorbent hygiene products. With 300,000 nappies thrown away every minute, the environmental impact is staggering, but this project offers real hope. Bringing together behaviour psychologists, mechanical engineers, and life‑cycle assessment experts, the team looks at the entire system to understand where meaningful change can happen. Their collaborative approach shows what’s possible when diverse professionals come together to rethink long‑standing waste challenges. Join Dr Elze Porte and Nicola Wilson as they discuss the project’s insights, the scale of the issue, and the innovative solutions being explored.
