Sustainable industries- Dr. Timothy Gutowski

    Description

    In this fascinating video, Dr. Timothy Gutowski, Professor of mechanical engineering at MIT discusses the importance of scalable, sustainable manufacturing.

    Dr. Gutowski highlights the importance of making large-scale efficiency changes in manufacturing, as small-scale changes are not enough to keep up with demand and consumption. 

    In order for sustainable manufacturing to be successful, Dr. Gutowski describes 3 essential components: New designs, new business models, and the societal change to accommodate them.
