Studies Confirm Urgent Need For Circular Economy
As both a remanufacturer and recycler one of our main priorities has always been to contribute heavily towards achieving a UK Circular economy and, if possible, a global one too. There is never a better time than the present to begin making changes to your lifestyle or your business in order to make a change for the better. Change is needed now more than ever.
This study looks closely at ocean plastics and their impact, providing great inside and some shocking facts. The study shows that pollution is rapidly outpacing all efforts to stop it. At the worlds current rate, there will be double the current amount of plastic on the market by 2040 and the amount entering oceans will triple.
Three clear goals have been outlined by both organisations who created the study which we strongly agree with:
- Eliminate plastics which aren’t necessary – particularly packaging and delivery methods to customers.
- Design all plastics to be reusable – and DON’T use ones which aren’t.
- Innovate in order to create business models which work towards a circular economy.
A complete circular economy has the ability to reduce the amount of plastics entering our oceans by 80%, reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25% and create 700,000 jobs – what’s not to like?
