🌍🔄 On September 24, Austrian Standards and Circular Economy Forum Austria hosted an insightful expert talk on the role of #CircularEconomy in addressing resource challenges and climate change. The discussion highlighted how adopting circular economy principles can drive both #sustainability and #economicgrowth. Standards play a crucial role in supporting these efforts, ensuring consistency and enabling innovation. Team members Ilija Ilić and Iwona Wagner-Gajewska who attended the event noted the relevance of these discussions to Reincarnate’s mission of maximizing the lifecycle and reuse potential of #buildings and materials in #construction. 🌱🏗️ 👉 Read more: https://lnkd.in/esWrCXhm #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #Innovation #ReincarnateProject

At the Sustainable Cities and Towns Conference (#Aalborg2024), the #circulareconomy session delivered a strong message: cities must break down silos and integrate circular principles across all departments. Circularity needs to be embedded into everyday operations, not treated as a one-off project. Key takeaways included the need to: 🔵 Scale up circular solutions, moving beyond pilots 🔵 Harmonise policies to support circular investments 🔵 Develop robust indicators to monitor progress 🔵 Shift public attitudes towards the value of circularity 👉 Read the full article here https://lnkd.in/gxwJeMiY

🎉 We are thrilled to announce the launch of Circular Spring, an evolution of Circular by Design. Although the name has changed, our mission is the same: to support business and organizational leaders on their journey to develop circular products, services and new innovative business models. 👋 Meet our co-founders:  Behnosh Najafi, PhD, Korina Stark, and Dana Reinert. Over the next few weeks, you will be introduced to each of us individually as we share a bit about our personal and professional backgrounds. 🚀 We're excited to propel the concept of circularity into the spotlight, placing it side by side with now common-place discussions on the need for a clean energy transition. Reaching global climate targets will involve green, renewable energy sources AND keeping existing materials & products in circulation for as long as possible. We hope you join us on our journey: ✅ please follow Circular Spring on LinkedIn  ✅ and learn more about us on our website (circularspring.com) Together, let's make a difference, one circular step at a time! #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #Launch #GreenLiving #Innovation

Exciting times are ahead in the world of sustainability! I’ve been diving into the latest green trends and am thrilled to share some groundbreaking developments shaping our future. These trends promise a healthier planet and open up incredible opportunities for innovation and growth. Here are the top trends making waves in 2024: 1. Decentralized Energy Systems: Imagine a world where energy is generated and consumed locally, reducing our reliance on fossil fuels. Hybrid microgrids combining solar, wind, and hydrogen are becoming a reality, empowering communities and businesses with sustainable energy independence 2. Circular Economy: Waste Not, Want Not: The circular economy is gaining momentum, emphasizing the reuse and recycling of products to minimize waste. From fashion to construction, businesses are rethinking their processes to create a sustainable loop of resources 3. Biodiversity and Nature-Positive Goals: Biodiversity loss is a critical issue, but companies are stepping up with nature-positive initiatives. These efforts aim to protect and restore natural habitats, ensuring we leave more nature behind for future generations 4. Innovative Sustainable Materials: The construction industry is embracing new materials like cross-laminated timber and ETFE, which offer lower environmental footprints. These materials are revolutionizing building design, making structures more sustainable and resilient 5. Advanced Climate Technologies: From carbon capture to sustainable aviation fuel, climate tech is advancing rapidly. These technologies are crucial for reducing emissions and achieving our global sustainability goals 6. Electric Composters: Turning Waste into Wealth: Electric composters make composting easier and faster, helping reduce methane emissions from organic waste. This trend is catching on with businesses and households alike, making waste management more efficient and eco-friendly 7. Brand Responsibility and Transparency: Consumers demand more from brands, pushing for transparency and genuine sustainability efforts. Companies are rising to the challenge, focusing on renewable energy, sustainable materials, and rigorous ESG reporting to build trust and accountability. Join the Green Revolution! These trends are not just about saving the planet but about creating a future where sustainability drives innovation and growth. How is your organization embracing these trends? Let’s share our experiences and inspire each other to make a real difference. 🌍💚 #Sustainability #GreenEnergy #CircularEconomy #ClimateTech #Biodiversity #SustainableMaterials #ESG #GreenBusiness #FutureIsGreen
