In a process of reviewing production and consumption patterns monitored by international targets, part of the Sustainable Development Goals, technologies aimed at different market dynamics are positioned as allies of the low-carbon economy, revisiting manufacturing stages from the product concept onwards.
A recent report published at the beginning of this decade emphasizes the estimated potential for a 39% global reduction in greenhouse gas emissions with the migration from the economic model considered linear to the so-called circular economy, gaining more space in discussions about solutions to climate change due to positive impacts such as this.
As a result, the discussion is consolidated for the formulation of public policies with strict criteria that include assessment of the product’s life cycle, prioritization of sustainable purchases that encourage reuse, as well as reduction of waste generation, without forgetting reverse logistics in post-consumption.
