What is the link between circularity and GHG emissions?
UN Environment Programme explores how the circular use of resources can support lower emissions especially in the building and automotive sectors.
๐๐ฎ๐ข๐ฅ๐๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฌ:
GHG emissions from the material cycle of residential buildings in G7 countries and China could be reduced by at least 80% by 2050
through strategies like modular design,
designing with fewer materials,
and improved recycling.
๐๐๐ก๐ข๐๐ฅ๐๐ฌ:
Emissions from the material cycle of passenger cars could be cut by up to 70% in G7 countries and 60% in China and India through
ride-sharing, car-sharing, and shifting to smaller cars.
