To the Point

• There is increasing research and discussion about
  circularity and the circular economy. However, global
  implementation is declining.
• At the municipal level, there are various approaches
  to implement a circular economy: from Circular to Zero
  Waste to Fab Cities.
• The differences among the three approaches lie in
  their spatial distribution, goals, admission criteria, and
  monitoring.
• While Circular Cities and Zero Waste Cities already
  have binding monitoring approaches in place, these
  are still lacking for Fab Cities.
• The ERDF project "FAB.Region Bergisches
  Städtedreieck" is driving transformation processes to-
  wards a co-creative, sustainable circular economy as
  Germany’s first Fab Region.
