The Circularity Gap Report is authored by CIrcle Economy Foundation in collaboration with Deloitte. It identifies key enablers and gives tangible recommendations for policy, finance and labour to accelerate progress towards the circular economy.
This year’s report explores the current state of global circularity, revealing that it has fallen further from 7.2% to 6.9%. This means that only 6.9% of the materials entering the global economy are secondary. Despite some bright spots—such as improvements in secondary material use—challenges remain in areas like rising extraction, biomass consumption, and stock build-up. The report examines how businesses can take action to help close this gap.
