Sustainable And Circular Management Of Resources And Waste Towards A Green Deal

Sustainable and Circular Management of Resources and Waste Towards a Green Deal highlights the importance of resource recovery, phosphorus management, climate action, clean energy transition, and circular economy. The contemporary world is facing significant challenges, including climate disruption, environmental changes, pollution, and population explosion. Sustainable management of finite natural resources within the carrying capacity of bio-geo-hydrosphere is the crux of transforming the global economy for a sustainable future. Moreover, keeping raw materials in circulation as long as possible and minimizing the amount of waste generated (and when it arises - its sustainable management as a secondary raw material) has also grown in significance as a part of transition to a circular economy (CE) model. Currently, sustainable and circular management of resources from primary and secondary sources is integral part of the transition. Introduces innovative solutions in green energy transition Provides case studies to provide examples of a circular economy implementation in selected sectors of the economy, including water and wastewater, raw materials, and construction Suggests actions to counteract climate change and its consequences for the people and planet
