  • To make the circular economy successful at scale, it is essential to drive efforts with science and facts rather than emotions.

The article from Forbes Technology Council, published on February 21, 2025, discusses the integration of material science with the principles of the circular economy. It highlights how advancements in material science are pivotal in creating sustainable products that can be reused, recycled, or biodegraded, thereby reducing waste and environmental impact. The piece emphasizes the shift from traditional linear economic models to circular ones where materials are kept in use for as long as possible. Key points include the development of new materials like biodegradable plastics, the use of AI and machine learning to optimize material use, and the importance of designing products for disassembly and recycling from the outset. The article also touches on the role of policy, industry collaboration, and consumer behavior in driving this transition, advocating for a holistic approach to sustainability that involves all stakeholders in the value chain.
