The #circulareconomy panel discussion gets off to a flying start with Crist’l Joris! #circularbelgium

Christl Joris ETAP Lighting International Agorianl is advocating the necessity of a #circulareconomy and system change towards a more sustainable economy and society. We need speeding & scaling up - eg Light as a Service proves it’s possible CircularBelgium

Hans Bruyninckx from EU EnvironmentAgency during the Circular Economy Hotspot’s closing session: we need multiple innovations, proper stimuli by governance system, sustainable finance, more data … to drive the transition to #circulareconomy. Main conclusion 👇 #GSTIC

Tom Duhoux makes an interesting point at the #circularbelgium event but in full agreement with the report from Hans Bruyninckx #circulareconomy

@tomduhoux & Frédéric Chomé Леонид Сорокин discussing whether in a #circulareconomy it is easier to start from scratch or to switch a current linear business model - what’s your take? CircularBelgium

Going towards the inner circles and getting data out from them. Reuse, repair, refurbish, remanufacture, etc. Focus on the #prevention side. Should we be able to move to the inner circles? What are the challenges to get there? CircularBelgium #circulareconomy Agència de Residus

Christl Joris ETAP Lighting International stressing CircularBelgium that companies Agorianl are not averse of more ambitious regulation as it raises the bar for everyone towards more #circulareconomy - “still having local production now proves to be an asset to close the loop”

All panelist seem to be in agreement about the below statement #circulareconomy #circularbelgium

.European Environmental Bureau Piotr Barczak 💚🌱🌍♻️: #CircularEconomy is in its childhood... and #product #policies have a lot still to do... not just consumer have work to do... CircularBelgium #CircularBelgium

"The goal is not to dig the goal more slowly. We need to bend the trend when it comes to creating a #circulareconomy" replies Hans Bruyninckx to the panelist #circularbelgium

"Every household has over 80 items that are being used less than 10 times per year. Just imagine what this could mean for the #circulareconomy" says FRÉDÉRIC CHOMÉ #circularbelgium

EU Environment member states and regions need binding targets on waste #prevention and having the right competences to quantify precisely in the inner circles of the #circulareconomy #circularbelgium CircularBelgium. Assess, act, report. Transparency. Agència de Residus

There is an urgent need of sharing examples on failure about not embracing #circulareconomy strategically. Good practices are great, but bad practices are even better to accelerate the transition. #circularbelgium CircularBelgium Agència de Residus
