Description
Summary:Sustainable management of natural resources is one of the major objectives of society. The well-being of the planet depends on the use of these resources. Based on these needs, the circular economy is an economic concept that interacts with sustainability and whose goal is to keep the value of products, materials and resources in the economy for as long as possible and to minimize waste production. The basic principle of the circular economy is the "closing of the life cycle" of goods, services, waste, materials, water and energy. In this paper we aim to bring to the fore the importance of efficient use of resources for sustainable economic growth, starting from the concept of circulating economy. At the same time, we will analyze the main indicators underlying the new economic model supported by the European Union.
