About this book
Ellen MacArthur broke the world record for the fastest solo circumnavigation of the globe in 2005. Her bravery and talent to overcome the challenges are a given, but the journey gave her an insight. All the supplies to successfully complete a round-the-world sailing race were loaded onto her boat before setting sail — there would be no opportunity to gain more resources after that, they would just have to be used wisely. Her insight was that our planet is the same; our resources are limited. She went on to launch the influential Ellen MacArthur Foundation in 2010, promoting the progression towards a circular economy.In the decade since, much has been discussed about the circular economy, with presentations and webinars becoming especially frequent in 2020 in response to increasing calls for a sustainable rebuild of the post-Covid economy, UK government policy and a European Union directive.This document seeks to build on Ellen MacArthur's vision, briefly setting out the current extent of knowledge but, most importantly, to provide a framework for action and assessment by all those in the lighting industry.
