In the current traditional system, we take resources from the Earth, turn them into products, and then eventually discard them as waste – the process is linear.
At Aplantex, the circular economy is on a roll!
Contrarily, in a circular economy, waste generation is avoided altogether. The circular economy is founded on three design-driven principles:
- Get rid of trash and pollution;
- Distribute goods and commodities (at the full amount they are worth);
- Shift to renewable energy and resources.
A circular economy dissociates the use of limited resources from economic activity. It is a robust structure that benefits society, the economy, and the environment.
Every component of our take-make-waste system needs to be changed. How we use resources, how we manufacture and consume products, and how we deal with the leftover materials are all important factors.
Only then, and as long as we stay within the sustainable bounds of our planet, can we establish a healthy circular economy. Furthermore, the circular economy equips us with the means to simultaneously address pressing social needs and the threat of biodiversity loss posed by climate change.
It empowers us to increase resilience, prosperity, and employment while reducing greenhouse gas emissions, waste, and pollution.
At Aplantex, our approach and production process is completely embedded within the circular Economy principles as we produce our own raw material using only renewable resources, we generate no waste and we capture atmospheric CO2 on a continuous basis making our operation Carbon negative – yes, the more we produce high value molecules, the more we clean the air we breathe !
It may look to good to be true. Thanks to biotechnology innovations, the future is now and fuels Aplantex today !
