Title The circular economy, design thinking and education for sustainability
Year 2015
Published Local Economy, 30, 3
Abstract The origins of the Linear Economy - the 'take-make-use-dispose' model of consumption - date from the Industrial Revolution and the global economy developed around this model. Various social, economic and environmental factors mean that it is no longer sustainable. A radical new model - the Circular Economy - is being advocated but as yet it is not widely practiced. This paper proposes that designers are crucial to the development of this new economic model; furthermore, this model facilitates education for sustainability and enhances employability.
