2. Advanced Waste Management Aspects in a Circular Economy
1. International Regulations, Treaties and Goals (SDG) in Circular Economy
Introduction
Modern economic realities require a fundamentally new approach to implementing economic activity.
Many countries have a linear economic model based on the 'take, do, dispose' principle.
A new development paradigm, based on the concept of a green economy, is gaining popularity.
Most experts believe that a closed-loop (or closed-cycle, cyclical, circular) economy is a way to find harmony between the economy and the environment.
The economic effect of introducing the concept of a circular economy is expressed in the reduction of the consumption of raw materials and energy resources and, consequently, in the reduction of their demand and price volatility in resource markets.
Specifically, the topics covered are:
