A circular economy for critical minerals

The Conduit, 6 Langley Street, London, WC2H 9JA

About this Event

The clean energy and digital revolutions represent multi-trillion dollar opportunities. Seizing these opportunities will require meeting the global demand for critical minerals such as lithium, cobalt, nickel, and rare earth elements — one of the defining geopolitical and economic challenges of the 21st century.

A circular economy for critical minerals can create resilient, secure, and sustainable global supply chains that also addresses negative climate and biodiversity impacts.

Now it’s time to make this vision a reality.

At London Climate Action Week, the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and its project partners will introduce an action agenda to chart pathways for businesses and policymakers to create new, circular critical mineral value chains that will support the energy transition and bolster material security.

Ellen MacArthur Foundation

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation is an international charity whose mission is to accelerate the transition to a circular economy in order to tackle some of the biggest challenges of our time, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, waste, and pollution.

Launched in 2010, we work with our Network of private and public sector decision-makers, as well as academia, to build capacity, explore collaborative opportunities, and design and develop circular economy initiatives and solutions.

Increasingly based on renewable energy, a circular economy is driven by design to eliminate waste and pollution, circulate products and materials at their highest value, and regenerate nature, to create resilience and prosperity for business, the environment, and people.
