Our Food Redesign Challenge is a huge opportunity for businesses to design nature-positive products that not only restore nature, but regenerate it. By creating a #circulareconomy for food, we can eliminate waste, and return key nutrients to the beginning of their natural cycles.

A legally-binding #UNTreaty - based on circular economy measures around reduction & reuse - presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to end plastic pollution globally. We cannot recycle our way of this. INC-2 marks a major stepping stone in this process.

We know the problems: the current food system is a driver of biodiversity loss and a significant contributor to climate change. The Big Food Redesign Challenge gives businesses the opportunity to unlock solutions and develop food products that are designed to help nature thrive.

.Ellen MacArthur Foundation sees reuse as one of the priority measures in an ambitious, legally-binding #UN treaty to end plastic pollution. Individual countries and businesses cannot do it alone - they need global legislation to help level the playing field and overcome systemic barriers.

The circular economy is gaining momentum. Each of the innovators in our Circular Startup Index is on a journey led by circular innovation. Together they represent a global picture of possibility.

A #circulareconomy is driven by design. By bringing circularity into our designs, we can begin to build a better future. Our Adaptive Strategy for Circular Design offers tangible actions that help organisations create the conditions for designers to put theory into practice.

If we can redesign our clothes, we can redesign our system – from linear to circular. We started with jeans. Four years later, The Jeans Redesign's Insights report 2021-2023 shows that other garments are following. Now we must move from product redesign to system redesign.

Our collaboration with @cameramoda on their 2023 #SFAwards places #circulardesign at the top of the luxury fashion agenda. We're excited to celebrate those applying #circulareconomy principles & driving an industry that's regenerative by design. Congratulations to the finalists.

Five years in, the Global Commitment has shown it is possible to make meaningful progress in tackling plastic waste and pollution. But we have a long way to go. We need an ambitious combination of policy action and voluntary action to move further, faster.

The Foundation’s new study on scaling returnable packaging shows what collaboration can achieve in tackling plastic pollution. By harmonising packaging and design standards, we can make the economics work, and unlock huge environmental benefits. #reuserevolution
