Circular Economy News: April Edition
Welcome to the Circular Economy Newsletter – April 2025 Edition
With Easter now behind us, we’re reflecting (still full of (sustainably sourced) chocolate) on circular news, opportunities and events from last month. For those of you who adopted more circular practices during Lent, we hope after 40 days they became natural habits – let’s try to keep them up! 💪
In Ireland, Oxfam has launched an initiative with An Post which makes it easier than ever to responsibly redistribute your clothing, UCD launches a new Circular Space on campus, and Clonmel Repair Cafe expands into a new Circular Hub in Tipperary.
On an international stage, Tallinn became the first European capital to seek Zero Waste certification, a new Ellen MacArthur Foundation report shows how circular construction could unlock billions in revenue while reducing emissions, and challenges in food redistribution highlight the ongoing need to rethink our systems to prevent waste and address food insecurity.
Dive into all of the latest news for more on how reuse, repair, and sharing are taking root globally.
