Source:<\/strong> The post is based on the article \u201cMoving away from the \u2018take-make-dispose\u2019 model<\/strong>\u201d published in \u201cThe Hindu\u201d on 26th July 2023.<\/p>\n

Syllabus:<\/strong> GS2- Bilateral, regional and global groupings and agreements involving India and\/or affecting India’s interests & GS3- Economy and Environment conservation<\/p>\n

News:<\/strong> India prioritizes the circular economy and resource efficiency during its G-20 presidency. They’ve introduced themes like circularity in the steel sector; Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR); circular bioeconomy and establishing an industry-led resource efficiency and circular economy industry coalition.<\/p>\n

What are the needs of circular economy?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Circularity in the Steel Sector:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Reduction in Emissions:<\/strong> Steel production accounts for about 7% of global energy sector emissions. Adopting a circular model can drastically reduce this.<\/p>\n

    Resource Optimization:<\/strong> As the demand for steel rises, especially in growing economies like India, it’s essential to use steel efficiently to avoid wastage.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR):<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Waste Management:<\/strong> Over 20,000 Producers, Importers, and Brand Owners are registered under India’s EPR framework, managing over 3.07 million tons of waste.<\/p>\n

      Promotion of Recycling:<\/strong> EPR promotes the growth of recycling infrastructure and a streamlined waste collection system.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Circular Bioeconomy:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Addressing Biowaste:<\/strong> G-20 countries have seen 2.5 times increase in biowaste since 1970.<\/p>\n

        Alternative Resources:<\/strong> India uses biowaste as raw materials, turning agricultural residue into bioethanol. This reduces the extraction of virgin resources.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Industry-led Resource Efficiency and Circular Economy Coalition:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Collaborative Effort:<\/strong> Industries play a pivotal role in advancing the circular economy.<\/p>\n

          Technological Advancement:<\/strong> This coalition focuses on technological collaboration and finance mobilization.<\/p>\n

          Engaging Private Sector:<\/strong> By involving the private sector, the transition to a circular economy can be accelerated.<\/p>\n

          What are the government initiatives towards circular economy?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

          Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR):<\/strong><\/p>\n

          India boasts a large Extended Producer Responsibility system.<\/p>\n

          Over 20,000 entities registered, managing 3.07 million tons of waste.<\/p>\n

          Bioeconomy and Biofuels:<\/strong><\/p>\n

          Launched the Pradhan Mantri JI-VAN Yojana<\/strong> to support bio-ethanol projects using waste like crop residues.<\/p>\n

          Mandated power plants to blend 5% biomass pellets with coal.<\/p>\n

          GOBAR Dhan Scheme:<\/strong><\/p>\n

          Converts cattle dung and organic waste into compost, biogas, and biofuels.<\/p>\n

          Over 500 functional biogas plants were established.<\/p>\n

          Alternative Fuels:<\/strong><\/p>\n

          SATAT Scheme<\/strong> launched in 2018 promotes Compressed BioGas (CBG) as green transportation fuel.<\/p>\n

          Helps in infrastructure development for CBG production and distribution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
