In July, our Director @esradt.bsky.social joined the Clean Industrial Dialogue on Circularity.
For ZWE, the Circular Economy Act must address:
🕵️The missing business case for circularity.
⏭️ Moving beyond recycling.
📝 An Extended Producer Responsibility redesign.
📽️ See the video for more takeaways.
The 2nd edition of the Reuse Blueprint was launched by the ReuSe Vanguard Project (RSVP) at the REuse Economy Expo in Paris 🎉

#WeTheHopeful is a #storytelling initiative from a group of scientists. Cf both versions of "Louise's life in 2050" wethehopeful.org

Chemical recycling reality check 🚨
Industry experts confirm we need 50 years to scale up pyrolysis to address the plastic crisis.
Waiting until 2074 isn't a solution: it’s a delay tactic.
We've already got proven alternatives today:
✅ Waste prevention
✅ Reuse systems
✅ Smart product design
While fossil fuel corporations reap profits, the world faces escalating climate disasters and plastic pollution. It's time to break free from this destructive cycle. We need a strong and ambitious #PlasticsTreaty that significantly cuts plastic production now.
