Daniela Barone Soares OBE’s Post

This was a truly inspiring course!  One of my main gains from this very well structured course is that I came up with my own short narrative for Circular Economy. Let me share it with you here:  A Circular Economy is a balanced, neutral, almost natural way for humanity to keep thriving without fully exploiting and finally destroying the Earth. It is fueled by renewable energy and controlled by the deep understanding of  cooperating systems in local and global levels. In these systems all the assets maintain their highest value and potential for the longest possible time due to careful maintenance, repair, refurbishment and remanufacturing and when this time is over for good they re-enter the industrial cycle as secondary raw material to start a new lifecycle. Circular Economy is humanity’s imperfect but yet closest attempt to mimic nature's perfection.

In today’s fast-paced world, the traditional linear economic model of “take, make, dispose” is proving unsustainable. As resources become scarcer and environmental concerns grow, the concept of a circular economy emerges as a beacon of hope, offering a sustainable alternative that can drive economic growth while preserving our planet.

https://lnkd.in/dJDiudkp Circular Economy It's a game-changer for sustainability! Instead of the usual take-make-dispose model, it's all about keeping resources in use, minimizing waste, and regenerating products and materials. This fascinating video that got me thinking about the Circular Economy and its relevance to our daily lives. The kicker: our personal spending habits are deeply intertwined with this concept. Our culture of overconsumption fuels environmental issues and social disparities. So, why we'll not make's a change? Embrace repair, repurpose, and recycle. Choose quality over quantity. #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #nomadadventure

The circular economy is more than just a buzzword; it's the very essence of our commitment to a sustainable future. But we understand the importance of breaking out of the ivory tower and making this concept accessible and engaging to all. Is the circular economy a significant topic in your circles too? 🌐 Explore our unique perspective on the circular economy and discover why it's more than just a concept—it's our daily bread and butter. #CircularEconomy #CircularDesign

The future of sustainable growth lies in the circular economy. By designing out waste and keeping materials in use, we’re not just protecting our environment, but unlocking new economic opportunities. A circular economy promotes innovation, reduces resource dependency, and ensures long-term resilience for businesses and communities. It’s time to rethink how we produce, consume, and create value for a greener, more sustainable world. #CircularEconomy #SustainableBusiness #Innovation #GreenEconomy #FutureOfWork #ResourceEfficiency

With increasing global pressures on our natural habitats, the circular economy concept has been hailed as a groundbreaking solution that could redefine our resource use without compromising economic growth. But, as with every innovative, it comes with its complexities and critiques. 🌱 During my tenure at an environmental Enthusiasts, I witnessed firsthand how the mere adoption of circular economy practices, touted as 'sustainable', sometimes led to unforeseen environmental and societal strains. This sparked my relentless pursuit to dissect and rebuild the circular economy values we stand by today. 💡 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐭: Transparent accountability in resource allocation Fair and equitable distribution of environmental responsibilities Commitment to minimizing extraction and waste 📘 Based on foundational sustainable development literature and critical reflections from recent circular economy discussions, it's clear that a robust value framework is critical for genuine sustainability. 🔗 Let's move forward by not just adopting, but adapting these principles meaningfully in our industries and communities.

CIRCULAR ECONOMY: #circulareconomy : In a circular economy, waste becomes a resource, driving sustainable innovation and fostering economic prosperity while minimizing environmental impact. #sustainability #wastereduction #reduce #reuse #recycle #ecofriendly #renewableenergy #environment #peopleandplanet #savetheplanet #reducecarbonfootprint #reduceenvironmentalpollution https://lnkd.in/gK-K_kqJ

In a linear economy, we take, make, use, and dispose. The circular economy flips this model, creating a closed-loop system where resources are continually reused, recycled, and repurposed, minimising waste and environmental impact, and decoupling economic growth from the use of finite resources.    Learn more below about what the circular economy is and why it’s a critical way of thinking as we shift to a more sustainable and equitable system for the future.     #circulareconomy   #sustainability
