We are pleased to invite you to our upcoming Webinar titled "Circularity and Waste Reductions in China". This Webinar is a part of the Greener Together: China-Nordic Dialogue on Carbon Neutrality Campaign organized in collaboration with Norwegian Business Association and DCCC.
The circular economy is gaining momentum worldwide as businesses and governments seek to reduce their environmental impact while still creating economic value. The Chinese government has set ambitious targets for waste reduction and recycling, aiming to build a resource-saving and environment-friendly society by 2025. To achieve this goal, China is promoting a transition towards a circular economy that emphasizes waste reduction, reuse, and recycling.
The transition to a circular economy is driving new business models, products, and services in China. Companies are finding innovative ways to reduce waste, improve resource efficiency, and create value from waste materials. This Webinar will showcase some of the successful initiatives and technologies that are helping China transition to a more sustainable and circular economy.
During the seminar, we will explore various topics related to the circular economy transition and waste reduction initiatives in China including:
-The triple effect of the circular economy, which includes resource efficiency, reduced environment leakage, and reduced carbon emissions. We will also explore how recycled content can help reduce the carbon footprint of products and packaging.
-How corporations are driving sustainable packaging through open innovation. We will discuss the importance of open innovation, the successful cases of corporates and startups, and how they work together to achieve sustainable packaging.
-Beverage carton recycling and how it can be driven across the value chain. We will explore ways to increase consumer awareness, support collection and sorting infrastructure, and promote recycled products. We will also discuss extended producer responsibility (EPR) in the beverage carton industry.
-Trends in ESG development and how enterprises can benefit from ESG investment. We will discuss how to practice ESG investment and share a case study of a customized product.
This seminar will provide valuable insights into the circular economy transition and waste reduction initiatives in China. Join us for this engaging seminar to learn more about these important topics.
Our event will feature four distinguished experts who will provide valuable insights and share their wealth of experiences.
