What is circular economy and its relevance for sustainable urban development?
- A circular economy is an economic system that focuses on minimizing waste, maximizing resource efficiency, and promoting reuse, recycling, and regeneration of materials. Unlike the traditional linear economy (take-make-dispose), the circular economy aims to keep resources in use for as long as possible by designing products and systems that reduce environmental impact.
- Implementing a circular economy in urban planning is crucial for smart cities, climate action, and long-term sustainability
