A circular supply chain keeps materials moving by reusing, repairing, and recycling products, cutting waste and saving resources. It’s a smart way to protect nature and build a sustainable future.
What is industrial symbiosis?
Glossary
Industrial symbiosis helps industries share waste and resources, cutting pollution, saving money, and boosting circular economy efforts by turning waste into new opportunities.
What is a linear economy?
Glossary
A linear economy takes resources, makes products, then discards them as waste. It wastes materials, harms the environment, and misses recycling chances, unlike circular models that reuse resources.
What is industrial ecology?
