A new pilot study is helping Queensland’s small to medium enterprises (SMEs) become more sustainable by designing out waste and using resources more efficiently.
The Circular Economy 4 Business program was developed by Research Fellows Ray Maher and Dr Jennifer Yarnold from The University of Queensland’s Centre for Policy Futures on behalf of and in consultation with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Queensland’s ecoBiz division.
Dr Yarnold said the Circular Economy 4 Business program was designed to help local businesses reduce their environmental impact, save money, and discover new sources of untapped value.
