What is a Circular Economy

Image: Definition of Circular EconomyA circular economy is an alternative to traditional linear economies based on taking resources, making things, consuming them, and then throwing them away. In a circular economy, products are used again and again, which reduces our use of precious raw materials and cuts CO2 emissions. It helps address global challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss, waste, and pollution.
