Doing less is not a goal, what are we aiming for? Why the circular economy is ultimately a step change compared with what has come before. #circulareconomy

"The moment that you see that there is a regenerative and restorative way for our economy to run, that was a switch and I saw everything as an opportunity" - Ellen MacArthur. #circulareconomy

Just tried to start up new Garmin GPS 78sc. Only 2 or 6 new Duracell AA batteries worked. The other 4 batteries tasted 1-1.25 volts. The sell by was 2018! Can I get a refund from Duracell? Anyone else has a problem?

“When you apply the concept of a #circulareconomy in the urban context, you’re looking to design out waste and pollution, keep products and materials in use and maintain their value, and regenerate natural systems" - @mirandaingreen in Cities Today. cities-today.com/how-cities-can…

We need to eliminate the #plastic items we don’t need; innovate so all the plastic we do need is designed to be safely reused, recycled, or composted; and circulate everything we use to keep it in the economy and out of the environment. #GlobalCommitment

In Europe, the average car is parked 92% of the time, but 50% of our cities land is dedicated to streets, parking lots, driveways, street signs and service stations. What if we designed our cities to move people, not cars? #GrowthWithin #circulareconomy

Why do we have a material designed to last 1000 years, and then irreversibly design it into a product that we know will only be used for 10 minutes? #circulareconomy

"Less than 1% of old clothes is recycled into new clothes - that's about 90 million tons of textiles wasted. In them, there's precious cellulose that should be able to feed the growing demand for textiles," - Renewcell's Harald Cavalli-Björkman at tinyurl.com/jeansredesign1

The global resale market is already worth $24B & has been predicted to grow to $51B in just five years. @YerdleRecom work with leading brands to develop white-label channels that take control of the resale marketplace, but how did they do it? Find out at tinyurl.com/embraceresale

"The only way you can continue farming with the soil that isn't healthy anymore because of the chemicals used is, of course, by putting more chemicals in it. We need a different way of operating - like agroforestry," - from Patrick Worms #thinkdif

In the living world, there’s no landfill. Instead, materials flow, and it works. If we accept that the living world’s cyclical model works, can we change our way of thinking so that we too, operate a #circulareconomy?
