,Background to Circular economy
Started with the Cradle2Cradle (C2C) philosophy (McDonough &
Braungart) which:
1.Defines two distinct material loops: biological and technical
2.When these are entirely separated products and materials can be
upcycled and waste becomes food.
3.This is regarded as eco-effectiveness opposed to eco-efficiency
1.Eliminate waste and pollution
Design products that eliminate waste and pollution
2.Circulate products and materials (at their highest value)
This means keeping materials in use, either as a product or,
when that can no longer be used, as components or raw materials.

3.Regenerate nature
Support natural processes and leave more room for nature to thrive
