Beskrivning

This invaluable book proposes that, contrary to the current ‘take-make-waste’ system, circular economies present practical solutions for sustainable futures. Leading experts explore new discoveries in production and consumption trends in order to combat pollution and reverse the effects of climate change.Contributors analyze how circular economies reduce waste, keep materials in use for longer and protect the environment while supporting economic well-being. They emphasize that – despite developing countries facing the most extreme effects of climate disasters, including limited resources and fragile waste systems – research trends have predominately focused their attention on the Global North. Decrying this narrative to combine academic research, practitioner insights and policy explorations, this book shines light on the voices and lived experiences of the Global South to present regional and national solutions for more sustainable and self-sufficient economies.Contextualizing the Circular Economy is a crucial resource for scholars and students of business, economics, sustainable development and environmental management. Activists and sustainability policymakers will likewise benefit from its comprehensive scope and actionable recommendations.

‘This book arrives at a time when finding practical solutions to global challenges has never been more important. It explains the circular economy in a way that is both accessible and thought-provoking, showing how reducing waste, making better use of resources and rethinking the way we do business can benefit people, the planet and future generations. By sharing experiences from across the world, especially from the Global South, it broadens the conversation and reminds us that innovation can come from every corner of the globe. A valuable read for anyone interested in creating a more sustainable future.’
