How Electronics Reuse Drives Carbon Savings ft. Stephanie McLarty

Thanks to The Untangling Circularity Podcast, our December Sponsor. The Untangling Circularity Podcast tackles unanswered circular economy questions. Co-hosts Cynthia Power and Laura Novich, both experienced sustainability and circularity professionals, have identified topics they would like more clarity on, and by addressing these questions head-on and bringing in experts, they begin to bring shape to the answers.

In this episode, Erika Schiller talks with Stephanie McLarty, Head of Sustainability at Quantum Lifecycle Partners, Canada's largest IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) and e-waste recycling company. In her role, Stephanie is in charge of building and executing a sustainability strategy across Quantum's 10 locations and beyond to help the company's stakeholders: customers, team, and the planet. She is also a respected thought leader and the host of The Circular Future podcast. 

Reusing and repairing our electronics at work and home have a win-win impact on financial value and carbon savings. Listen as Erika and Stephanie explore her ESG journey, which began with a niche focus on reusing telecom equipment and expanded to a marketplace solution. In her area of expertise, Stephanie leverages data to demonstrate the financial & environmental impacts when products are reused versus recycled. As our devices get smarter, the circular economy of electronics continues to evolve.
