kiertotalousnäkökulman

Kiertotalousnäkökulma refers to the perspective of the circular economy. This approach aims to move away from the traditional linear "take-make-dispose" model towards a system where resources are kept in use for as long as possible, extracting the maximum value from them whilst in use, and then recovering and regenerating products and materials at the end of each service life. The core idea is to eliminate waste and pollution, circulate products and materials, and regenerate nature. This perspective encourages businesses, policymakers, and individuals to rethink how goods are designed, produced, consumed, and managed. It emphasizes the importance of durable design, repair, reuse, remanufacturing, and recycling, as well as the use of renewable resources. By adopting a circular economy perspective, societies can reduce their environmental impact, create new economic opportunities, and enhance resource security. This viewpoint challenges conventional economic thinking by valuing resource efficiency and ecosystem health alongside economic growth. The transition to a circular economy is seen as a systemic change requiring innovation across various sectors, from product design and manufacturing to logistics and consumption patterns.
