The Ellen MacArthur Foundation

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation is a charitable organization that promotes the concept of a circular economy. This approach aims to reduce waste and encourage sustainability by designing products and systems that keep resources in use for as long as possible. Instead of the traditional "take, make, dispose" model, circular economy practices focus on reusing, repairing, and recycling materials. Founded by the British sailor Ellen MacArthur, the foundation collaborates with businesses, governments, and academia to inspire and implement innovative solutions that benefit both the environment and the economy.
