As sustainable designers we’re constantly trying to improve methods to support the circular economy and ditch the linear economy. As you know the linear economy Makes, Takes and Disposes. Whereas the circular economy can be achieved through long lasting design, maintenance, repair, reuse, remanufacturing, refurbishing and recycling.
Imagine if you could build capital from waste, imagine if you could contribute to a healthier environment by adopting a circular economy, you would wouldn’t you ?
We’re big fans of the The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, and thanks to them here’s a great animated video to explain how we can all adopt the circular economy.
Enjoy.
