CircularCORE
Circular systems practices to address critical issues of climate change, rampant urbanization, loss of habitats, and resource limits.
Our Response
Consulus introduced CircularCORE in August 2024, a framework designed to integrate and streamline circular systems practices by building upon the methods of PlaceCORE, ImpactCORE, AgriCORE, and Future Resilience by Design.
CircularCORE moves beyond conventional sustainability efforts like carbon accounting or regenerative agriculture.
It addresses how circular systems impact economies, environments, and supply chains holistically. The goal is to create “profit with less destruction” by reducing waste, promoting upcycling, minimizing pollution, and improving productivity through efficient resource reuse. CircularCORE focuses on embedding circularity into every aspect of development, moving past traditional sustainable practices into a fully regenerative model.
At its core, CircularCORE identifies four key dimensions that define circular cities and businesses:
Policy
Ecosystem
Economic Drivers
Implementation
Our Approach
Systems thinking
Human element
Operational reality
