From To
The circular economy creates new
opportunities for the implementation of the
Paris Agreement and for countries to
increase mitigation ambition
Focus on substituting carbon-intensive materials, optimised
resource and asset use
Article 6 to facilitate international cooperation and
develop low-carbon value chains
Consumption-based accounting and system analysis to identify
mitigation opportunities across sectors
Territorial IPCC carbon accounting per
sector
Focus on energy efficiency, renewable and
deforestation
Article 6 inspired by CDM and
offsetting

Finding systematic mitigation options requires mapping the full metabolism of a jurisdiction, industry or industrial cluster.

Lao PDR as resource hub
for recycling and
remanufacturing
The net outflow of materials implies that
there is idle transport capacity in the reverse
direction. This capacity can be used for
reverse logistics of end-of life products to
stimulate the growth of the Laotian recycling
and remanufacturing industries.

Circular resorts to
advance ecotourism:
Material substitution for
sustainable construction
Vientiane is experiencing a construction
boom. By substituting carbon intensive
construction materials with bamboo and
wood, it can safeguard a national
architectural character while tapping into
domestic rather than imported resources.

Circular agriculture and
hydropower: Algae
farming
Hydropower reservoirs are used only for
power generation while they can provide
several services. River water contains
agricultural residues like fertilizer. Algae
farming in reservoirs can provide a raw
material for protein or organic fertilizer, while
improving water quality.

Agriculture and food
Clean organic residues from industries can be
composted and used to regenerate the
exhausted soils near Almaty.
Support initiatives for certifying organic
production and couple them with quality
certification to provide access to new markets.
Employ land-sharing and urban farming
schemes to blend agricultural and urban
areas.

Construction
Preserve the architectural heritage or spatial
lay-out of the city.
Use passive design to lower the energy use of
new buildings, and rely on modular design
and urban mining to reduce resource use.
Lower the carbon footprint of the construction
sector by substituting carbon intensive
materials with wood-based industrial
construction materials.

Industry
Use temporary, vacant space in the city for
creative industries which re-design and
repurpose secondary products and materials.
Take advantage of the Belt and Road initiative
to expand the manufacturing industry with
remanufacturing. Service models can help
retain ownership.
Use agricultural residues to produce
packaging and support growth of the
agricultural sector by providing matchmaking
services for industrial symbiosis.
