Holanda (Paises Bajos) casi 1/4 circular. ¿Qué significa, cómo medir?

Salió (en Inglés) un reporte sobre la circularidad de Holanda que nos da una perspectiva sobre aspectos cruciales al respecto.

¨Uniquely, this study provides a first approximation towards how resource use is allocated across the Netherlands’ societal needs and wants. We can crystallize the outcomes of this analysis into key takeaways. The need’s material footprint originates to a large extent from outside of the Netherlands, which is typical for a developed trade nation. Mobility and Nutrition are the biggest contributors to the Netherlands’ societal need footprint, taking up almost half of the entire consumption footprint. This study differentiates itself from others in its field in that it takes a consumption approach. A comparison of approaches to measurements is part of the study. ... To boost

the circularity of Netherlands, four explorative “what-if” scenarios which can partially transform the economy to become less reliant on linear processes have been explored: (1) Advanced construction practices, (2) Circular agriculture and food system, (3) Shifting from fossil fuels to renewable sources, and (4) Repair, remanufacturing and high-value recycling.

... Transformative measures to cut greenhouse gas emissions are inherent in the circular economy; the circular agenda and low-carbon agenda are complementary and mutually supportive. Circular business models and improved resource efficiency are means to enhance emission abatement, reduce extraction and improve supply security when materials are kept in the region.¨
