Re-thinking waste – transition to a circular approach to resources
• 5 year multi-activity HE pioneer partnership programme with Ellen Macarthur Foundation (2010 -15)
• Shift from waste management to resource efficiency to re-design
Two key principles:
• Design out waste : ALL products and infrastructure designed and optimised for cycle of disassembly and reuse
• Differentiate consumable and durable resources, components and materials (biological and technical)
• Major business opportunities for the Leeds City region?
