Ellen MacArthur Foundation

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation is a UK-based charity that promotes the concept of a circular economy, which aims to reduce waste and make better use of resources. Founded by sailor Ellen MacArthur in 2010, the organization works with businesses, governments, and universities to encourage sustainable practices that minimize environmental impact. Its focus is on designing products and systems that keep resources in use longer, promoting recycling, and reducing pollution. By advocating for these changes, the foundation seeks to create an economy that is restorative and regenerative, benefiting both society and the planet.
