4th SIB Conference Report
Every year we look back and we look forward and we see a lot of change and progress has been made, and there is still a lot to do. Last year we discussed issues like waste management, impact on land, infrastructure and biodiversity and people’s skills. This year we can share the progress. On Waste Management we are now ready to draft the Action Plan together with identified partners. On circular Economy, we now share the principles beyond the waste aspect. We look at Resources, Redesign materials, Redesign business models, Refurbishment, Remanufacturing and Recycling and we are developing road maps with partners. Recovering
materials, Rethinking the use of materials are now even in the new Waste Management Bill. We all believe in the Circular Economy and we understand that resources, nature and people are all connected. This year we try to find the collective solutions to close gaps. We will make sure everyone can pair up and find their match, start building that platform where all green, sustainable construction materials come together, create a plan where the hospitality/tourism industry will not only pledge but communicate to the consumer and
have their waste and materials management taken care of, start including everyone in investing in trees and restoring landscapes (our homes), find the answers to skills and people power to build a Sustainable Future.
