Peterborough one of 10 Canadian communities joining circular economy initiative

According to the Ellen MacArthur foundation, even though cities take up just two per cent of the earth’s landmass, they emit 80 per cent of greenhouse gases and consume 75% of the world’s natural resources.
A circular economy is all about changing that pattern.
The Peterborough region has just been accepted into an immersive initiative to become a circular city, joining nine other Canadian communities working on that in the next year.
Rhonda Keenan explained the elements of a circular economy to Teresa Kaszuba.
