The climate and biodiversity crisis is a major issue, and how we make and consume things is a significant part of the problem. Extraction and processing of materials, fuels, and food account for about half of global greenhouse gas emissions, over 90% of biodiversity loss, and water stress. Many modern businesses deplete resources, destroy ecosystems, and dump waste and pollution at every stage, harming human health. Governments, businesses, and think-tanks see the circular economy as the way forward.
A Circular Economy Handbook, now in its second edition, is a guided tour through the concepts and practicalities of the circular economy. It provides a unique framework that explores the range of circular interventions, including product and supply chain design, material choice, and supporting business models. The book answers questions such as how the circular economy works for businesses, what circular approaches are emerging in food, fashion, consumer technology, packaging, and other sectors, and how they reduce risk, improve resilience, and build profitable, future-fit organizations.
With over 300 real examples from around the world, the book is a must-read for businesses, students, and policymakers. The new edition has been extensively updated to include the latest trends, thinking, research, and solutions, with a new chapter on packaging and 30 new company snapshots.
