Circular economy is a way to mitigate climate change
In our current economy, we take materials from the Earth, make products from them, and eventually throw them away as waste – the process is linear. In a circular economy, by contrast, we stop waste being produced in the first place.
We must transform every element of our take-make-waste system: how we manage resources, how we make and use products, and what we do with the materials afterwards.
Only then can we create a thriving circular economy that can benefit everyone within the limits of our planet.
