dc.description.abstract | It is time to ask some simple and some not so simple questions
about the various forms of circular economy (CE) and their existing
business models. According to the European Commission, CE is
a production and consumption model that aims to preserve the
value of products, materials and resources for as long as possible
by returning them to the product cycle at the end of their use, while
minimising waste generation. CE is closely linked to environmental
problems such as air and water pollution, waste generation, etc., as
well as to climate change and the goal of limiting the temperature
rise to 2 degrees Celsius. Therefore, it is necessary to understand
the need for new business and governance models that go beyond
sectoral policies for effective implementation of CE. This policy
brief highlights the concept and approaches of CE and outlines
the role of governments, businesses, and international institutions
in improving the transition from a linear to a CE. Using India, a
developing country, as an example, the authors highlight the
opportunities and challenges in moving towards a CE approach.
The authors conclude by identifying ways to improve the adoption
of CE through increased investment flows, competitiveness, the
emergence of innovative business models, and job creation. | en |
