In third world countries, circular economy has worked for decades. Take, make, waste model, is present mainly in first world and in high income families. Poor people around the world, are used to reuse "single use products" as many times is possible before they break. In México poor people wash disposable cutlery, cups and plates because they can not afford to give them away. In deed there are street markets where you can find second hand mobile phones, washing machines, refrigerators, electrical appliances, computers, etc., and you can even find spare parts for their old models, and if you can not find spare part, you can find someone to make or adapt one. It is great that finally First World learn something from third world.
anyway, in short, I was saying the circular economy and related topics should be a big part of education throughout the world because it's my generation who will be dealing with our resources running out. I would have had no idea about any of this if we hadn't been taught so much about it.

The glory that is coming out of you is truly wonderful: keep pushing the circular economy model. Have you had the time to appraise the proposed Sustainable Development Goals of the UN to see how compatible they are to your circular approach and advice them?

You need to continue building suburbs. The private houses are so beatiful and you can make sense of your own car and buy a huge amount of stuff and drive long distances. This will help to use resources 10-100 times more efficently than vertical densely populated cities. Urban sprawls allow also to elluminate the whole planet at night. Isn't egoistically destroying your environment by beatiful houses and cars inspiring? Every chineese needs a beatiful car and private house. Seriously, I cannot agree with only one thing. The first R in he concept of sustainability (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) is _Reduce_ -- we must consume less in the first place and reuse what we have produced, rather than focus on recycling of the goods. You should understand that whatever you do, even when recycle, you inevitable have leaks, the losses. So, you should minimize the amount of things that you do. Otherwise, it is this is a brilliant talk. It starts a bit scary, as a piece of crap, the stupid dream of stupid sheep, which everybody must have in order to stay a stupid sheep. But, she has managed to break through the "Matrix" and realize the true values, the goal and way to save civlization. Thourghout my school, I came to the same idea, I was affirming the idea that the absolute beauty = efficiency (growing entropy is evil), despite the purpose of our existence, exploited by capitalists, is to buy house and burn gasoline. Might be it is because I am is also stupid. "Normal" people think that more complex and more waste we do, for instance keeping all lights on all the night along just because it is expensive and when we can afford it, means that we are successful and can afford it and wasting correlates with good. Also, stupid people cannot handle chaos and, therefore, notice how things can be imporved (made more simple). Smart asses consider Occam's principle of absolute beauty rediculous. They consider that beauty is more complex because this makes the thing unique and expensive. That is the paradox: stupid people rather than smart asses can really appreciate the true, absolute beauty and truth. Even ancients have noticed "Simplex veri sigillum", which means "idiots do not lie" or "simplicity is a sign of truth".

you wouldn't think there's that much else to learn about it, I learn something new every year within that week. Thanks, Ellen MacArthur!!!
