The #CircularEconomy is becoming a (fragmented) megatrend. We have identified, mapped and deeply analysed 75 national circular economy roadmaps which include 2882 circular economy policies (across 17 sectors)!

@wire_brigade @istabreeze @PhotonicUni @ecocars1 @KateFantom Thanks for those update! I was just a out to by an Ista! So you saved me. Would be great to know how the Photonic is running - particularly how it fairs in +40mph winds! Did you need to install a heat dump?

Read our new Synergies article by Jack Barrie @thinkcircles and Gael Grooby @WCO_OMD on how improvements to the WCO's HS could facilitate the transition to a circular economy https://t.co/M2z6JkdsAZ

It also lists criteria in which the opinion of the experts was most divergent and likely in need of further discussion. #CircularEconomy @circulareconomy @circleeconomy @WWF

Challenge 3: The global circular economy policy and legislative landscape is becoming increasingly fragmented and does not provide the necessary enabling conditions for encouraging circular finance

[Dr Jack Barrie @thinkcircles]

The #CircularEconomy faces a severe financing gap. Our latest paper outlines how sustainable finance taxonomies can help but also the challenges in embedding circularity within these taxonomies. https://t.co/42GMfPA8If

[Dr Jack Barrie @thinkcircles]

Challenge 2: most intended users of a taxonomy lack awareness of, or are underprepared for, the myriad technical and procedural challenges in meeting the ambitious circular economy substantial contribution criteria

@AnneVelenturf 🤣

[Dr Jack Barrie @thinkcircles]

The circular economy is really becoming global. Over 49 national #circulareconomy roadmaps and strategies launched or under development. How we collaborate more together as a global community to make sure these roadmaps work for all? #WCEF2022
