The Ellen MacArthur Foundation presents a new three-part series featuring popular articles. Today's installment explores how a circular economy helps us stay within the nine planetary boundaries.

These boundaries, defined by the Stockholm Resilience Centre, encompass critical issues like climate change, novel entities (pollution), and ocean acidification.

The final Project ReDesign workshop, held at Oxford's Examination Schools on March 25, 2011, challenged students to rethink waste as a materials opportunity. They explored systems-level redesign in a world of finite resources and rising energy costs.

Volunteers from the Foundation's Founding Partners – B&Q, BT & CISCO, Renault, and National Grid – provided expert industry support.

With resource and energy prices becoming increasingly volatile, the long-term viability of today's linear economy is in question. This raises the idea of favoring access and performance over ownership of goods.

A short animation from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation introduces this concept, illustrating how a performance model could benefit businesses, users, and the wider economy. This approach is a vital component in the transition to a regenerative circular economy.

Cities globally are adopting circular economy principles to build thriving, livable, and resilient futures. These principles are integrated into various policies, from planning guidelines and public procurement to citizen and business awareness campaigns. The aim is to leverage technology for economic development, job creation, and CO2 reduction.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation's cities team supports key cities in this transition. A live broadcast will feature representatives from these leading cities, sharing their progress.

Commercial pollination faces significant challenges due to declining local pollinator populations and reliance on honeybees. BloomX offers a solution with devices like Robee and Crossbee, which mimic natural bee pollination strategies, including buzz and electrostatic methods. Embracing this technology can reduce dependence on commercial honeybees, mitigate disease spread, and secure abundant food production for the future.

The Ray of Hope Accelerator supports nature-inspired solutions addressing global environmental and sustainability challenges. Created in honor of Ray C. Anderson, this program recognized BloomX as a 2022 finalist. For more information, visit the Ray of Hope Accelerator, the Ray C. Anderson Foundation, and BloomX.

This session delves into financing and measuring the circular economy. Discover how it drives new growth, achieves climate and ESG goals, and how its financing market has rapidly expanded across asset classes. We will also explore methods for measuring circularity performance to inform decision-making for both business leaders and financiers.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity, accelerates the transition to a circular economy through business initiatives, learning, insights & analysis, and communications. Learn more about our work: www.ellenmacarthurfoundation.org.

Biofertilizers, which use living soil microbes to enhance plant growth, face a challenge: delicate bacteria often die on the shelf before application. Inspired by resilient tardigrades and silkworm silk, Ivu Biologics developed a biodegradable seed coating. This innovation extends microbe shelf-life, boosting crop yields, restoring soil health, and reducing the need for conventional fertilizers and pesticides.

Ivu Biologics was a finalist for the 2022 Ray of Hope Prize. The Ray of Hope Accelerator (formerly Prize), created in honor of Ray C. Anderson, supports nature-inspired solutions for environmental and sustainability challenges. This program fosters innovative startups like Ivu Biologics, contributing to a sustainable and resilient world.
