Keynote presentation for launch of MODOS by Dublin City Council

1. HELLO

4. waste is a
design
flaw

8. SCALE OF SYSTEMIC CHALLENGE
2.2 BILLION TONNES OF WASTE BUT ONLY 0.6 BILLION TONNES RE-ENTER THE SYSTEM AS RECYCLED MATERIALS

14. a circular economy keeps
resources in use for as long as
possible, extracts the maximum
value from those resources,
recovers & regenerates
products & materials at the end
of each service life

16. PLUGGING THE EMISSIONS GAP

17. in 2018 industry is projected to account
for 24% of global CO2 emissions
“a more circular economy in the EU
alone could cut industrial emissions by
more than half by 2050”
UNFCC & SITRA

18. EUROPEAN
COMMISSION
REDUCTION OF EU CARBON
EMISSIONS BY 450 MILLION
TONNES BY 2030
ZERO WASTE
SCOTLAND
MATERIAL CONSUMPTION
RESPONSIBLE FOR OVER
2/3 OF SCOTLAND’S
CARBON EMISSIONS & CE
COULD REDUCE
TERRITORIAL EMISSIONS BY
11 MILLION TONNES
CO2E PER YEAR BY 2050
COMPARED TO BAU,
REDUCING SUPPLY RISK/
CRITICALITY
MC KINSEY & ELLEN
MCARTHUR FOUND.
ACROSS MOBILITY, FOOD,
AND THE BUILT
ENVIRONMENT, A CE
COULD RESULT IN 48%
CARBON EMISSIONS
REDUCTIONS BY 2030 (31%
ON CURRENT DEV. PATH) &
83% BY 2050 (61% ON
CURRENT DEV. PATH),
COMPARED WITH 2012
LEVELS.
