In his latest @netflix documentary, #DavidAttenborough calls for us to work with nature rather than against it.

We need urgent action to avoid a future in which there is more plastic than fish in our oceans.

We need a #circulareconomy for plastic.

Scaling the #circulareconomy is not just about investing in perfectly circular companies or divesting from extractive ones, but about engaging with and encouraging companies in every industry to make the transition. Discover the role of finance in this at https://t.co/NlrAsJzjca

“Finance is in many ways the oxygen of the economy,” - the group chief executive of @Barclays, Jes Staley, talks about the need for finance to help drive economic growth, but in a way that protects the environment.

As a partner of @circulareconomy we are delighted to see the launch of their ‘Financing the Circular Economy - Capturing the Opportunity’ position paper, outlining the vital work being done to push forward the development of the #CircularEconomy.

[Ellen MacArthur Foundation @circulareconomy]

The #circulareconomy offers significant growth opportunities, over and above providing a viable and positive way to address ESG concerns and deliver on climate targets, and can become a real value driver for the financial sector.

From offering significant growth opportunities and addressing ESG concerns to creating value and managing risks for entire value chains and industries, the #circulareconomy presents a multi-trillion dollar economic opportunity. Finance can help scale it

.@Timberland's 2030 vision goes beyond just reducing negative impacts, and promotes positive outcomes for the environment in the long term:

By 2030:

- 100% of their natural materials will be regeneratively sourced
- 100% of their products will be designed for circularity

[Ellen MacArthur Foundation @circulareconomy]

The question is not whether a #circulareconomy for plastic is possible, but what we will do together to make it happen.

We need to urgently scale up our efforts. We urge more businesses and governments to join us & tackle plastic pollution at the source

This landmark report shows again the stark reality of the plastics crisis. It also shows the relative contribution of known solutions to address it .. elimination, innovation for new product delivery models including reuse, and dramatic increases in recycling are all essential.

[Ellen MacArthur Foundation @circulareconomy]

Could plastic production plants be the next stranded assets? As the plastics industry spends hundreds of billions to expand production by 40% by 2030, #BreakingthePlasticWave shows plastic production must stop growing if we are to tackle plastic pollution

[Ellen MacArthur Foundation @circulareconomy]

Today marks the release of #BreakingthePlasticWave, launched by the @pewtrusts & @SYSTEMIQ_Ltd. We have shaped a perspective on its findings, outlining what businesses and governments must so right now if we want to put a stop to plastic pollution https://t.co/4G3DUsGzZI

[Ellen MacArthur Foundation @circulareconomy]

To solve plastic pollution, we need to:

(1). Eliminate the plastic we don’t need
(2). Innovate at unprecedented speed and scale
(3). Circulate the plastic we do need

Only then we will be able to put a stop to it https://t.co/4G3DUsGzZI
