Abstract:

The idea of sustainable practices in our economy is becoming more common in academics, business, and the process of making public policy. A circular economy is an unconventional business model that reduces pollution and waste and the lack of resources. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the policies and procedures that nations such as China, Germany, Japan, Scotland, Denmark, and India have put into place. The information is gathered using Web of Science, Scopus journals, and other gray articles published by the Government of India, which broadens both the understanding of the c

Abstract:

There are significant regional disparities regarding circular material use rates between Western European countries and other regions in the EU. Hence, there is a severe risk that the circular transition will remain slow and unevenly distributed across EU regions. Business ethics related to circular change involves some principles and practices that guide the ethical conduct of businesses operating within the circular economy. The study aims to recommend a framework to guide regional entities to implement an Ethical Circular Hub to identify new solutions and challenges regarding stakeholder co

Abstract:

The degradation of the environment is associated with economic activity, particularly with the linear way in which the economy does not make efficient use of resources. However, the circular economy is opposed to this linear paradigm, since it makes the most of the resources in trying to achieve zero waste. In this context, this study investigates the relationship between industry 4.0 technologies, COVID-19 outbreak, environmental regulation policies and circular economy practices.

Abstract:

The current policies aimed at promoting the decarbonization of existing buildings under the principles of the circular economy are in need of practical measures tailored to local conditions to increase their effectiveness. The lack of standard practices for assessing buildings’ refurbishment strategies toward energy efficiency and CE principles reflects this reality. To tackle this issue, a new framework for refurbishing circular buildings, is proposed in this paper, based on circular procurement and incorporating a lifecycle perspective. This framework articulates a dialogue between local aut

Abstract:

The rise in urbanisation and resource consumption has highlighted the urgent need for sustainable economic models. The traditional linear economy, which relies heavily on non-renewable resources, exceeds the Earth’s capacity and poses significant sustainability challenges. As a result, there is an increasing necessity to transition towards a circular economy (CE) as a more sustainable alternative. Saudi Arabia, one of the world’s largest economies, is striving to implement this shift due to considerable environmental and economic challenges.

Abstract:

The circular economy is increasingly recognized as a crucial solution to environmental and economic challenges, gaining significant attention from the government, businesses, and citizens in Vietnam. As urban waste management becomes urgent, understanding the factors influencing sustainable waste management practices is essential. This study aims to assess the impact of circular economy awareness on the actual waste management behavior of market vendors in Hanoi. A total of 324 valid responses were collected directly from vendors in 2024. The paper applies an extended version of the theory of

Abstract:

The Covid-19 pandemic has once again caused citizens around the world to attach importance to the urgency of the waste management crisis and the need for environmental action in general, and this should act as a wake-up call for taking the boundary between human consumption of non-sustainable activities and the capacity of the natural environment seriously. Governments in the Netherlands and Japan designed and implemented policies to facilitate the transition to a circular economy and to promote sustainable waste management. This paper reviews waste management policies and practices in the two

Abstract:

The study aims to identify which main macroeconomic determinants affect investment in a circular economy. The main purpose of the investment determinants in a circular economy is to determine how macroeconomic determinants such as real GDP per capita, government expenditure, unemployment, inflation, tax revenue, and interest rate affect an investment in the circular economy in the European Union for the period 2004–2022. Using an error correction model, empirical findings confirmed that government expenditure, inflation, and tax revenue have positive effects on investment in the circular econo

Ensuring sustainable consumption of water, which is essential for human development, is not sufficient, therefore, there is an urgent need to improve reuse of treated wastewater. This paper reviews the newest EU legislation related to reclaimed water reuse, which is the main driver for change. While there are some positive developments in the EU, the paper argues that the current EU legislation does not sufficiently encourage circular solutions, especially on how to deal with any bottleneck effects, which prevent to fully utilise wastewater.
