The United Nations Development Program’s Human Development Report 2020 highlighted the need to innovate and implement the transition to a circular economy to achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. Circular economy strategies aim to reduce overconsumption, design out waste, restore and regenerate ecosystems and natural capital, and require fundamental changes in production and consumption systems and advances in technology. Many of these strategies are already on the horizon, creating a significant opportunity for a circular carbon economy to reach carbon neutrality.
