About This Collection

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation is an independent charity with the aim of inspiring a generation to re-think, re-design & build a positive future through the vision of a circular economy. Ellen MacArthur founded the Foundation to better understand how on land too we rely on finite resources in the form of materials, energy and water after her experiences as a world class sailor having sailed over 26,000 miles to become the fastest person to circumnavigate the globe single-handed.

The Circular Economy 100 is a global platform bringing together leading companies, emerging innovators and regions to accelerate the transition to a circular economy over a 1000-day (3 year) period. The Annual Summit was held Wednesday 19 June 2013.

Our plastics system is broken; recycling, burning, and burying waste are not solutions. The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, through Iulia Strat, explains how we can accelerate towards a circular economy for plastics.

As a UK charity, the Foundation develops and promotes a circular economy model that, driven by design, eliminates waste and pollution, circulates products and materials, and regenerates nature.
