Making It magazine: Time to go circular (Issue 26)

Contributors to this issue of UNIDO’s Making It magazine look at the circular economy from a variety of angles, from Ken Webster’s introduction to systems thinking to Ewa Lewandowska’s argument for social equality to be included in the design of the new circular economy, while Alexandre Lemille rails against the focus on recycling, claiming that we should instead understand the circular economy as the way to prevent waste from being created in the first place.

The issue also takes a look at the design and re-design aspects of circularity, and introduces the Rizhao eco-industrial park, one of the best examples of the impact of Chinese government policies that encourage industrial symbiosis as part of its circular economy drive.
