Lesson Plans on Circular Economy
The entry point to circular economy education can be through any existing environmental education initiative like energy conservation, waste management, biodiversity education, climate change etc. with focus on reducing waste. The literacy should motivate a person with competence to reduce the loss of material and energy at every stage of production and consumption through product and service redesign.
