Below is a list of upcoming circular economy events
The Centre for Sustainable Design ®, UCA Business School within the Blue Circular Economy project present the findings of a new report on local innovation systems related to waste and “end of life” fishing gear.
There is a growing recognition of the problems associated with waste and “end of life” fishing gear worldwide. In 2019, the European Union (EU) passed the Single-Use Plastics Directive that included ‘Extended Producer Responsibility’ (EPR) legislation related to fishing gear that is due to be implemented in December 2024. The development of new infrastructure for EPR for fishing gear will require new circular economy infrastructure and solutions in coastal areas throughout Europe and this will present both challenges and opportunities.
