Natural capitalism & circular economy
How to restore the planet designing materials, businesses, and sustainable policies
Alejandro Pagés skillfully guides us through a journey of awareness and renewal of human ties with nature, in order to direct actions towards the restoration of the Earth's biodiversity and the promotion of an articulated environmental economic agenda for companies and governments, based on a new paradigm of sustainable production and consumption, with fiscal public policies that tax waste and not employment, and financial policies that reconfigure the wasteful logic of the linear economy. The objective: to leave a legacy that allows the subsistence of the new generations and the survival of the species with which we share the planet.
