We currently live in a linear economy where raw materials are extracted to assemble new products that we will eventually throw away in the garbage. In short, we are living in a take-make-waste system where there is no chance to achieve zero waste, but at least we can do our best to minimize the negative impact due to human overconsumption.

What can we do to protect the environment?

Over the past decade, the idea of moving to a circular economic model to solve our environmental problems has taken the attention of small and big companies. Many environmental associations have also established that this economic model is an excellent way to restore the environment and preserve natural species.

Are biodegradables and recycling the cure?

We have also talked about the circular economic model as a solution to climate change, resource scarcity, pollution, and all environmental challenges. While the whole world has been championing the 3R model for decades, the circular economic model is a collection of new and old strategies meant to save the planet from our endless consumption.

Any conclusion?

While the circular economic model offers a planet-saving alternative, it also seems like another version of something we've already tried and failed. However, it is never too late to start the change.
