Europe’s Circular Economy Action Plan

According to the EU, "The new Circular Economy Action Plan presents actions along the entire life cycle of products in order to modernise and transform our economy while protecting the environment. It is changing the way we produce and consume - sustainable products need to become the norm to reduce resource-use and waste-generation. According to a recent Eurobarometer survey the growing amount of waste is among the 3 top environmental concerns to citizens. The interviewed considered that the most effective ways of tackling environmental problems are by changing the way we consume and we produce and trade."
