31 Oct 2023 --- The Ellen MacArthur Foundation (EMF) has released a progress report marking the first five years of its “Global Commitment” — a set of objectives and standards designed to promote a circular economy, which has over 1000 signatories. The report shows that despite some notable progress, businesses are on track to fail most of the 2025 targets established by the commitment. The report comes weeks ahead of the third International Negotiating Committee (INC-3) for a UN Global Plastics Treaty, which will be held in Nairobi, Kenya, 13-19 November.
