Bending the curve: Best practice interventions for the circular economy in developing countries

This report summarises in-depth reviews in five areas of the circular economy: the sharing economy; e-waste; agricultural waste; urban waste and industrial symbiosis. These reviews allow a deeper analysis than previous approaches based on case studies. The authors identify a range of development interventions that are proven and replicable in a variety of low- and middle-income contexts.

Managing Marine Plastic Debris in Asia and the Pacific

Plastics were first developed in 1907 with the discovery of Bakelite, a synthetic polymer that could be easily massproduced. This invention led to countless innovations and new products as plastics became an essential material of the global economy. In 1989 the world produced about 100 million tonnes (Mt) of plastic every year. By 2015 that number had grown exponentially to 322 Mt (McIlgorm et al., 2020). Since 1907 over 8.3 billion tonnes of virgin plastics have been manufactured. But, as supply and demand continues to grow, global recycling capacity has been unable to keep up. As a result, only 9% of all plastic ever made has been recycled – a small quantity remains in use in society, while the vast majority sits in landfills, has been openly incinerated or now pollutes the land, forests and oceans of our natural environment.

Circular Economy in the City: A Rapid Ethnographic Research on Circular Economy in a Philippine Urban Setting

The report entitled Circular Economy in the City: A Rapid Ethnographic Research on Circular Economy in a Philippine Urban Setting highlights the urgency to shift to a more circular economic model in the Philippines due to the burgeoning problem of unsustainable production and consumption. The report informs us about the advantages of the circular economy: it could help in preventing biodiversity loss, fighting climate change, and addressing the waste problem with potential to provide green novel jobs. We can see the gravity of the situation in the Philippines, as it named the third largest source of discarded waste – bulk of which is plastic waste that ends up in the ocean.
