Unlike a traditional linear economy (extract, make, use, dispose), in a circular economy, each new object is designed for maximum longevity and future reuse and, at the end of its life, becomes a potential resource, rather than an item of waste for disposal. Circular economy encompasses more than the production and consumption of goods and…
