  5. World Economic Forum Towards the Circular Economy Accelerating the Scale Up Across Global Supply Chains
Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Circular Economy 100: Accelerating the scale-up across global supply chains report. The report estimates the materials cost savings of adopting a more restorative approach at over US$ 1 trillion p.a. by 2025, net of materials costs incurred during reverse-cycle activities. The shift to circular economic activity could help address the global job gap of 600 million that the International Trade Union Confederation forecasts by 2030 if business as usual continues. A large-scale, business-led collaboration is needed to accelerate and scale this trend, says MacArthur Foundation founder.
