"We’re building an intentionally regenerative and circular economy that understands the value of place, the environment and people — and is willing to say we don’t need to go bigger.”
Closed loop… Except for the government taxes. And the financials which will likely not be home grown. And the outside regulations, inspections, state compliance, health care, etc, etc.
I’m all for a closed loop society. But even a government as “free” as the USA would never allow that.
Still I applaud their efforts. Maybe the headline is a bit misleading though
Based on what I dug into regarding the concept, a closed-loop economy focuses on three principles:
Eliminate waste and pollution
Circulate products and materials
Regenerate nature
This being the case, I don’t see exactly how taxes come into play in any detracting way. Plus it’s pretty lightweight with financial requirements too. It’s more of a modern day more aggressive recycling game plan for a community.
