Our April issue, entitled “A roundabout, not a one-way street”, looks at national efforts and European strategies to move towards more sustainable waste management. We cast a glance at the new Secondary Resources Act – a working draft of the law was unveiled by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB) in autumn 2015 – and the European Commission’s Circular Economy Package. And in our interview, Stéphane Arditi from the European Environmental Bureau tells us how a zero waste society can be achieved and how ecological design can make a contribution.
