Reflections on Circular Economy in a Time of COVID-19

Today I am reflecting broadly on the effect that the COVID-19 pandemic could have on the circular economy movement. I’ve selected three positive effects I hope it will have including:

1. Improving our ability for (virtual) collaboration
2. Illustrating the possibility for strong leadership and quick action
3. Supporting distributed - rather than centralised - circularity

We also touch on the European Commission’s New Circular Economy Action Plan.
