Circular Economy - Debris should not exist

 All people should be able to understand that we live on a planet with limited resources. The amount of raw materials in the crust of our planet is limited. This means that raw materials will become increasingly expensive to mine and eventually "run out". Our wear-and-toss society is not sustainable in the long run.

The linear system of raw materials becoming garbage does not work in the long run.


 Please check the program "Garbage should not exist," where sensible viewpoints on both the problem and various solutions are presented.

 We live in a world of natural resources. In a better world trash should not exist. That's the message Ellen McArthur delivers. Her goal is to drive the transition to a circular economy. She explains how we all would benefit from a global circular economy. The program is in English with Swedish subtitles

 Duration - 10 minutes - Available until Wednesday, March 30. 2016 at:

 An interesting background to this could be "The Lightbulb Conspiracy", available on Youtube (presented in English translated into Norwegian text).

 It may also be interesting to check if the article "Phosphorus - a future shortage" in:

 Future shortage of phosphorus means to fertilizers in agriculture will not work, resulting in mass starvation.
