Circular Economy Package (EU policy)

The Circular Economy Package is an EU policy initiative aimed at reducing waste and maximizing the reuse, recycling, and durability of products. It encourages designing products to last longer, be easily repaired or recycled, and minimizes resource extraction. The goal is to create a more sustainable economy where materials are kept in use for as long as possible, reducing environmental impact and promoting economic growth through resource efficiency. This approach shifts away from a linear model of "take-make-waste" towards a more circular system focused on sustainability and resource conservation.
