We do not inherit the land from our ancestors, we borrow it from our sons.
Navajo people’s proverb
The development of consumers’ economy and the common concept of wellbeing from easy consumption has led to a new emergency in both environmental, social and economic terms: waste emergency. Waste emergency, generally called the environmental emergency, comes of a wrong model of growth, the so-called ‘take-made-dispose’.
This is a linear model involving the production of goods or materials, its use and its final disposal. It requires endless, cheap and low-cost disposing resources. Actually this is not being so and this way, besides being unsustainable, is creating a relevant damage to our planet.
Gruppo Zilio, with a view of promoting the circular economy (opposed to the linear economy), an economic model reducing or eliminating waste by maximizing the value in use of the products, has realized a regenerating process which enables to dump 3% of the weight of spent material instead of 100%.
