We live in time of  extreme exploitation of natural resources is much higher than the rate of regeneration. The current trend is extremely dangerous due to the shrinking resources, resource dependency and interruptions in deliveries, which diametrically affect the soaring prices of raw materials. One of the answers to the question of how to prevent this is to implement the circular economy model.

Thanks to the circular economy model, waste begins to gain more and more value in the context of obtaining raw materials. Not only does the extraction and re-use of raw materials significantly reduce the level of use of primary natural resources, but also, from the financial point of view, it is becoming more and more profitable. In 2017, the reports by Anders Wijkman and Kristian Sandberg on the macroeconomic impact of the circular economy showed, using the example of seven European countries, that national CO2 emissions can be reduced by 66% while creating new jobs. These are local and decentralized workplaces where the products and their users are, not in remote countries.
