The concept of 'circular economy' has gained significant traction in recent years as a sustainable alternative to the traditional linear model of 'take-make-dispose'. Unlike the linear approach, which depletes natural resources and generates vast amounts of waste, a circular economy emphasizes the continuous use of materials through recycling, remanufacturing, and repair. This paradigm shift not only reduces environmental degradation but also fosters economic resilience by decoupling growth from resource consumption. However, the transition is fraught with challenges, including the need for substantial investment in infrastructure, changes in consumer behavior, and the development of global standards for material recovery. Critics argue that without comprehensive policy frameworks and international cooperation, the circular economy risks remaining an aspirational ideal rather than a practical reality.
