Material Matters

Developing Business for a Circular Economy

Beschreibung

Our planet is a closed system with limited material resources, yet our current economic model is designed in a one-way direction from resource extraction to disposal, leading to resource depletion. This book proposes a new economic model, offering an alternative to this linear â take-make-wasteâ economy - a comprehensive agenda for change.
