Support the Circular Economy

Circular economy designs products to last and to be refurbished or taken apart for reuse. Resources can keep getting used in new products again and again, on a circular path.

The opposite of circular economy is linear economy, which takes raw material to make an item for short-term use, putting it on a fast, linear path to disposal.

Here are a few ways we can support the circular economy:

  • Purchase products/services that use recycled materials.
  • Support companies that offer take-back or refill programs.
  • Buy refurbished products.
  • Buy products that are made to last and that can be repaired.
