Circular Economy
Ellen MacArthur Foundation
The eco-task that is in our hands, is realizing products, cities, lifestyles, that are designed with attention for the impact on the
environment and a minimal influence on:
energyfoodwaste
heatingair quality
CO2methane
&water quality
attached people, devoted life-styles
not my piece of cake
there must be a different ‘brand’
....circular....
three steps
circular =
thinking in circles, loops(can we learn?)
innovation
governance
symbiosis
a few basic principles:
symbiosis
entropy
interdependence

some lessons
learning ‘by’ nature
Who’s the smart guy in resourcemanagement?
13
Photosynthesis in plants creates energy from sunlight
they absorb almost 100% of the sunlight reaching them

ENERGY EFFICIENCY
So, can we learn ‘by’ nature?
turbulent water resistant
abundancy & circular
circular (nutrients)
patterns
abundancy
energy from the sun
nutrients forever
entropy
symbiosis
diversity
So, Cradle to Cradle?
C2C is on quality
CE is on economics
Innovation
Circular is a new game
with new rules
some newby’s
it is about change
realisation
Technical
Proces
Systems
innovation
re-create
re-design
re-think
organisation vison/policy
level
systems innovations
Lineair economy(from cradle to grave)
re-design
Circular economy(from cradle to cradle)
proces innovations
Competition
becomes
Cooperation(symbiosis)
proces/systems innovation
forget ownership
proces/systems innovation
product or performance?
ownership or use?
value:performance including service
an example.......
A building is a materials bank.
I don’t buy lamps, I buy light. And you?
PERFORMANCE BASED INTERIORC2C CERTIFIED PRODUCTS

Laws, Regulations, Taxes?
or
steering on conditions?
Governance
take care of growing
new instruments or mindset?
Condition Steering
set clear goals on:
resources
energy
performance
Condition Steering
tax reduction on
innovation
services
design for disassembly
Condition Steering
public purchasing
focus on performance
(changes innovationdrive / responsability)
Condition Steering
facilitate
the Energetic Society
Condition Steering
create
level playing field
(no hidden subsidies)
Condition Steering
forbidding
natural resources for energy(= waste to waste becomes urban mining)
Condition Steering
investments
new financial optionsgarantuee funds for risks
Condition Steering
steering on conditions
* is a creative proces
* is a systemsinnovation
needs:
ideas, guts and perseverance
Governance
the ducks
be a duck
Ellen steers
Learn from her performance
no (institutional) power, no ego
clear goals, daily routing
Governance
asking
ask the right question
and
"You can't tell me that it can't be done."(Ray Anderson, InterfaceFlor)
