I leave for Sweden next week to visit relatives and to travel with my mother into the far north of the country, Sápmi country. One thing I always appreciate about Sweden, and the Nordics in general, is their commitment to sustainability and the environment. My cousin who lives in Stockholm is what I would call a militant recycler, as are most Swedes. She has never owned a car, doesn’t even have a driver’s license. I’m very interested in the circular economy—designing products for longer use, reducing waste, increased recycling, reuse and energy efficiency. Sweden, come to learn, is also a leader in the circular economy. Starting this year food waste must be sorted from other waste—by law. They have a target of zero waste by 2029. This article summarizes very well what Sweden is contributing to the circular economy and moving beyond just recycling as a way of mitigating our waste. #circularity #sustainability #sweden
Ha en bra resa!
I'm also very interested in the circular economy and look forward to reading this this article--thanks for posting it! Have a good trip!
When I visited Sweden in 2012 I was impressed with their recycling program.
Underbart! Ha en underbar resa!
