In this report, we explore the opportunity for Australia to adopt the concept of a circular economy, establishing a robust and holistic framework for sustainable growth. This involves creating closed-loop material cycles across the production and consumption value chain, and treating waste as a leakage of value to be avoided rather than dismissed.
