Download the white paper: 'Creating a circular economy in ICT'
We’re living in a ‘take-make waste’ linear economic model, where materials are extracted, used, and then thrown away.
This isn't the model we need if we're to create a sustainable world economy, one that's both equitable and eco-friendly for our living planet.
