ABOUT PROJECT

What is circular economy and why is important to teach a new generations about it?

Since the Industrial Revolution, the economy has been developing according to the growth model - mine-produce-consume-dispose. It is a linear model based on the assumption that natural resources are rich, available, easy to mine, and their disposal is cheap. Today we already know that the situation has significantly changed over past years, that it is no longer true and something has to be changed.
