The world has finite resources.  A circular economy is an economic system aimed at minimising waste and making the most of resources.  This regenerative approach is in contrast to the traditional linear economy, which has a 'take, make, dispose' model of production.  

​

In a circular system, resource input and waste, emissions and energy leakage are minimised through long-lasting design, maintenance, repair, reuse, remanufacturing, refurbishing and recycling.
