Completing the picture; how the circular economy tackles climate change

Producerad av: Ellen MacArthur Foundation och Material Economics

Publicerad: 2019

“Renewable energy is not enough. There needs to be a fundamental shift in the global approach to tackling climate change and the circular economy can play an essential role.

Whilst the circular economy is underpinned by renewable energy, the paper concentrates on five key areas (cement, plastics, steel, aluminium, and food) to illustrate how designing out waste, keeping materials in use, and regenerating farmland can reduce these emissions. [The report] demonstrates how business leaders, policymakers, and investors can build a thriving and resilient economy while playing an essential role in reaching climate targets.”

Cities and Circular Economy for Food

Producerad av: the Ellen MacArthur Foundation

Publicerad: 2019

“By making great strides in productivity, the industrial food system has managed largely to meet the demands of a growing global population. However, this approach to food production, and the management of food by-products, is endangering biodiversity and human health. It has become clear that this food system is no longer fit for the 21st century and that a new model is required.

Launched at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2019 in Davos, Cities and Circular Economy for Food explores the benefits of the transition to a regenerative food system. With analytical support from SYSTEMIQ, the research outlines a vision underpinned by circular economy principles, where food production improves rather than degrades the environment.
