Here is an analysis of variations in a red beetle population across three situations:
Situation 1 (Original population): The population consists of mostly red beetles, with a small percentage of black beetles. The red coloration provides better camouflage in their current environment.
Situation 2 (Environment change): The environment darkens due to increased vegetation/debris. Now black beetles have better camouflage than red beetles. Over time, the percentage of black beetles in the population will increase relative to red beetles, as black beetles survive and reproduce at a higher rate.
Situation 3 (New environment): The environment changes again, this time becoming lighter in color (e.g

This document summarizes an open discussion on filling existing gaps in current attempts at circular business models. It includes presentations and comments from representatives of Dell, Philips, TerraCycle, and Arizona State University on their companies' approaches to the circular economy. Key points discussed include Dell's closed-loop plastic supply chain, challenges with scaling circular models and redesigning products, and opportunities around reuse, upcycling, and recycling. TerraCycle's model for recycling traditionally non-recyclable waste through collection programs and transforming materials was also examined.
Recycle & Reuse .pptx
Recycling and reuse have significant environmental and economic benefits. Recycling processes include open-loop recycling which breaks down materials for new products, and closed-loop recycling which recycles materials back into their original form. Common materials that can be recycled include plastics, textiles, ceramics, metals, glass, batteries, electronics, and construction materials which reduces pollution, energy use, and greenhouse gas emissions. Increased recycling and reuse by individuals and organizations helps promote a more sustainable future.
