In support of this event, The Hague Centre for Strategic Studies (HCSS) and The Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research (TNO) have drafted a short document on Circular Economy.
There is growing optimism about the potential of the Circular Economy to contribute to achieving our climate objectives. In this document, HCSS and TNO explain how climate action requires Circular Economy strategies; substitution (by 2023), remanufacturing (by 2033) and over 50% end-of-life recycling rate (by 2043).
