Circularity: An Essential Component of Sustainability in the 21st Century (en Inglés) - William M. Nelson

Circularity marks a paradigm shift from the traditional linear economy to the necessary circular economy. This volume captures the importance of circularity and its critical role in achieving global sustainability. A sustainable circular economy (SCE) is a model of production and consumption, which involves prolonging the lifecycle of existing materials and products as long as possible. SCE addresses global challenges by implementing three base principles: eliminating waste and pollution, circulating products and materials, and regenerating natural resources. Circular development builds a sustainable society through the conservation and use of environmental resources.
