Description
Our guest this week is Professor Matthew Rimmer, an expert in intellectual property and innovation law at the Queensland University of Technology. Matthew has recently written about the Right to Repair movement and how we must do more to incentivise the repair and re-use of existing products to move towards something like a circular economy.Â
What have doughnuts to do with modern money? Quite a lot, as it turns out. Gabrielle Bond and Steven Hail explore the relationship between The Deficit Myth and Doughnut Economics, and explain why their show is named Modern Money Doughnuts.
