Linear economy

Circular economy ( kringloopeconomie) -> cradle to cradle versus recycling

From natural resources to waste =  the lineair economy

lineair economy

    - you need new natural sources every day

    - we run out of non-renewable resources 

    - extraction of non-renewable resources are burdensome

     - also the extraction of renewable resources are environmental degredation 

 

Conclusion : Linear economy is not sustainable and no longer a future plan!

Recycling of waste  

 

Part circulair economy with recycling 

    - part of the waste is  a resource for new products

    - less use of natural resources  

    - less waste

    - long term : not enough sustainable

          - you still need natural resources

          - only a few products from recycling 

          - on the end you still have waste
