This scheme demonstrates how a responsible recycling model can enable social inclusivity and be replicated elsewhere. For more than 70 years, Cairo?s zabbaleen (Arabic for waste collectors) have been gathering and recycling the city?s rubbish with an efficiency that would be the envy of most professional waste management companies.
Survey reveals why people don?t recycle more | World Economic Forum
3 Jan 2025 at 8:03am
A lack of programmes and services is the top barrier to greater recycling uptake, a global sustainability survey shows. Globally, 64% of people feel personally responsible for acting on climate change. But many said recycling was either inconvenient, or they lacked trust in recycling programmes.
Top 25 recycling facts and statistics for 2022 - The World Economic Forum
4 Jan 2025 at 2:43pm
Considering the EPA hasn?t released an updated report on the state of recycling and waste since 2018, it can be difficult to get an idea of how the recycling industry has changed in the past few years. Luckily, we have compiled the most recent statistics on plastic, paper, aluminum, glass, electronic and food recycling for 2022.
7 ways to boost e-waste recycling ? and why it matters
5 Jan 2025 at 9:15pm
Higher global consumption of e-goods, shorter product life cycles and fewer repair options mean the amount of unwanted phones, laptops and other items is soaring. However, changing attitudes to the circular economy mean initiatives aimed at reusing and recycling e-waste could help us use precious metals and minerals more sustainably.
Why recycling metal is an opportunity too good to waste
2 Jan 2025 at 12:29pm
Recycling 'energy-transition metals' - or metals from batteries, electric vehicles and renewable-energy products offers abundant growth potential. The structure of secondary supply chains must evolve, driven by policy that stimulates domestic processing and consumption.
?Wishcycling?: the dos and don?ts of recycling | World Economic Forum
1 Jan 2025 at 8:06am
Recycling the correct materials, however, can accelerate the circular economy through upcycling. Researchers at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, recently revealed ways to produce high-value products, such as carbon nanotubes (used to design lightweight parts for aerospace) and clean liquid fuel, from used plastic. The process can also ...

In another example, Pakistan is exploring new coding systems that will facilitate the recycling of post-consumer plastics, providing an opportunity for manufacturers with a consistent system for resin identification.
How innovation will jumpstart lithium battery recycling
1 Jan 2025 at 5:45pm
Lithium-ion battery recycling is an important problem we must solve through innovation to provide sustainable solutions for battery material needs. It is possible to recycle; we only have to look to the success of lead acid batteries that are largely recycled today. The imperative to invest in our lithium-ion battery recycling process is clear.
4 charts to show why adopting a circular economy matters
3 Jan 2025 at 12:21pm
In the circular economy scenario, which includes reducing waste and increasing recycling, the estimated costs would be less than $255 billion a year. This circular approach would prevent ?runaway waste management costs? and also deliver a ?vastly better environmental performance,? the report?s authors say.
