Linear economics● Material shortage ● Waste surplus
● Recycling not a built-in feature
● Need to buy a new product

● Infinate recyclability● Production and reduction for minimal
energy cost● Biomimicry

A circular business in a linear economy
● Required to grow in order to pay back loan / interest
● Supplyers and resellers are also required to grow
● Needs to be balanced financially
● Compete on a market where the lowest price wins
Hopping on 2 thoughts economy or ecology

Myth
● Economy is competition. Just like nature.

Paradigma's in biology
● Charles Darwin● 1859● Life is an endless
competition for scarce resources
● Elisabet Sahtouris● 2005● Life is continuing self-
creation

Conclusions part 1
● We need a circular economy
● The linear system is not designed to support circularity
● Use euro -> money drain
● Circular economy is part of a new paradigm
● This new paradigm is also found in biology
● Economy = Darwinism : short-sighted.
Why is there a money drain?

All Money is born as a debt
Principle of money creation● Example:
● Mortgage € 100.000.-● Money in tell € 5.000.-● New money: € 95.000.-
● Interest 1st year: € 5.000.-● €100.000 × (1+0.05)^20= € 265.329,77

When is the interest money created?
● Money is a debt● Debt → interest● The blue money is

Kleureneconomie● Attempt to set Economy = Ecology ● Distinguish energy, material and waste in
3 dimensions : R G B
Red = Energy
Green = Material within its cycle
Blue = Material lost from its cycle

Currency● Holistic systems
approach● Life Cycle
● Strive for balance● Transparancy● Responsiblity● Local / regional● Self organisation
