A recent paper explores the role of the circular economy in advancing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through sustainable resource management.
Authors Anupam Khajuria and team emphasize reuse, recycling, and resource optimization for progress towards SDGs, particularly SDG 12.
The circular economy promotes efficient consumption, waste reduction, and product longevity to minimize environmental impact.
Sustainable consumption involves using resources mindfully to meet present needs without compromising future generations' ability to do the same.
Transitioning to a circular economy requires redesigning products for durability, repairability, and recyclability, aligning with SDG 12 objectives.
The shift to a circular economy is vital for driving sustainable growth, consumption efficiency, and innovation, notes Khajuria.
Collaborative efforts among governments, businesses, and society are crucial for successful circular economy transitions and sustainable consumption.
Education and awareness play key roles in promoting circular economy principles and sustainable practices for a resilient future.
The research underscores the benefits of a circular economy, such as economic resilience, environmental protection, and social well-being.
The study showcases real-world case studies to illustrate how stakeholders can implement circular principles for sustainability and economic objectives.
