- Circular Cities Barometer” showcases top 25 cities leading the shift to circular living
Scores based on circularity of buildings, municipal systems, urban amenities and policies
Circularity critical to a sustainable future As part of their partnership, Holcim and Bloomberg Media launched the “Circular Cities Barometer” to understand how cities are leading the shift to circular living for a sustainable future. The Barometer’s first findings were unveiled on 27 April 2022, at the Bloomberg Green Summit.
Jan Jenisch, Holcim CEO: “Circular economy is a key element to stay within our planet’s boundaries and get serious about climate action. With our world’s rapid urbanization, cities are at the center of this shift from a linear ‘take-make-waste’ economy to a circular ‘reduce-reuse-recycle’ one. This Barometer, developed in partnership with Bloomberg Media, gives us unique insights into what the most innovative circular cities around the world are doing to accelerate this shift. I’m excited to learn about these best practices, so that we can all play our part to fast-track the transition to circular living.”
“At our core, Bloomberg is data centric and solutions driven,” said Lauren Kiel, General Manager for Bloomberg Green at Bloomberg Media. “That’s why we’re pleased to be partnering with Holcim to bring attention to what makes cities around the world circular. We hope that by providing these insights it will help inspire other cities to take action to enable change.”
