Solutions Pathways for Circular Plastics in Canada
Join us for a solutions-oriented interactive online event focused on plastics packaging pathways to achieve a circular economy in Canada. Thought leaders will first share the latest in upstream innovation processes and requirements. Participants will then be invited to explore together innovation processes for circular plastics.
The World Circular Economy Forum (WCEF) brings together up to business leaders, policymakers and experts from around the world to present the world’s best circular economy solutions. WCEF examines how businesses can seize new opportunities and gain a competitive advantage through circular economy solutions, and how the circular economy contributes to achieving the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.
In September, the WCEFonline brought together over 5,000 global economy reformers to discuss the most important tool in sustainable recovery: the circular economy. The COVID-19 crisis, the escalating climate crisis and the loss of biodiversity have forced societies around the world to look for new sources of growth and new ways of reforming the foundations of the economy.
Thank you to all who joined the circular economy change-makers from around the world as they shared practical circular economy examples that will help us rebuild our economies stronger, greener and better! With top speakers from around the globe, networking tools and a chance to take part in the discussions from wherever you are, WCEFonline offered a modern circular economy venue.
La session explorera le rôle de l'exploitation minière dans la transition vers l'économie circulaire. Il examinera les technologies, les innovations et les initiatives mises en œuvre pour saisir les opportunités dans les sphères sociale, économique et environnementale de l'économie circulaire.
Depuis la révolution industrielle, le rythme des progrès a augmenté de façon exponentielle. Les innovations qui en résultent ont amélioré l'accès de nombreuses personnes à des produits abordables du monde entier. Mais, le système actuel ne peut plus être soutenu - par les entreprises, les personnes ou l'environnement. Nous avons besoin d’une économie qui prospère dans les limites de la nature: une économie circulaire.
