CIRCULAR ECONOMY
Theoretical basis: David W. Pearce & R. Kerry Turner, 1990

Primary thesis
The current economic system does not
provide any real incentive for recycling;
almost all products; almost all products
are manufactured to be ultimately
disposed of.


Status quo: linear economy
Take, make, dispose -> WASTEFUL

The future: circular economy
Reuse, refurbish, remanufacture, recycle

NO WASTE
In 2015 the EU implemented a new Circular Economy Package, designed to
encourage the system by funding implementaAon efforts as well as seCng up
regulaAons on waste that incenAvize recycling programs.

CIRCULAR ECONOMY
Responding to global sustainability problems

Global Household Expenditure
1970: USD7 trillion

Global Resource Needs
2014: 50 billion tons


2012: USD25 trillion

2050: 130 billion ton

Global GDP (Business As Usual)
2010: -1.6%

Annual Raw Material Extraction
Increased 3x in the last 40 years

2030: -3.2%
Commodity Prices
Increased 3x in the last 10 years
Waste
2025: ± 2.2 trillion kilograms of waste
produced in urban settings alone
Climate Change & Environmental
Effects
Consistently worsening conditions from

year to year as a result of rising industrial
and household emissions

CIRCULAR ECONOMY
Fundamental and comprehensive change in economic activities

BUSINESS AS USUAL

Example of circular economy:
The Mud Jeans brand in the
Netherlands: jeans are rented
un2l outworn, then returned and
recycled and made into new
products; consumers are then
given new jeans.

LOCAL INITIATIVES IN CIRCULAR ECONOMY
Examples of locally-based dissemination and sustainable processing

Cattle dung-powered biogas

reactor, Padang (PT Swen IT)

3,400 units in 243 regencies/
cities in 33 provinces

Local recyclers, Indonesia Plastic
Recyclers Association (ADUPI)

400,000 tons of plastic a year are
recycled from a total of 3–4
million tons of plastic
consumption
