#35: How Can The Toy Industry Be More Sustainable With Leticia Suarez - a podcast by The Toy Coach

As much as we love toys, we have to be honest with ourselves and recognize the heavy toll that toys take on our planet. This episode focuses on sustainable materials and practices that can help make toy products less harmful to the environment. Today’s guest, Leticia Suarez, comes to the show with over 10 years of experience in toy and product design with a focus on sustainability.

Leticia joins The Toy Coach in a conversation about the changes we need to make as both an industry and a society to reduce our carbon footprint. What you’ll learn in this episode is the Ellen Macarthur Foundation’s concept of a circular economy. You will learn why it is more beneficial to our environment, that we re-think HOW toys are produced than WHAT they are made of.
