Policy Brief: Reducing use of natural resources can be coupled with strengthening the economy7.5.2024 10:45:37 EEST | Suomen ympäristökeskus
The Finnish economy can grow even if the raw material consumption is reduced. At the same time, climate change and biodiversity loss will be mitigated, and pollution reduced. Finland should transition to a circular economy, as it reduces the use of natural resources and promotes crisis resilience. The new Policy Brief published by the Finnish Environment Institute explains how decoupling raw material consumption and economic growth is possible and what the transition to a carbon-neutral circular economy society requires.
