The report also shows how these focus areas interact with the Terrestrial and marine environment. In particular, it examines their impact on the terrestrial and marine environment and how better management of the environment can unlock the circular opportunities of each focus area. By implementing the opportunities identified under each strategic direction, the region can ensure long-term economic development while protecting its natural ecosystems.&nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>‍\u003C/p>","2023-03-23","Cities ","https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/5d26d80e8836af2d12ed1269/641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears.png","2025-05-26T14:04:11.542Z","2025-09-01T06:31:26.154Z",{"id":674,"documentId":675,"name":676,"alternativeText":15,"caption":15,"width":632,"height":632,"formats":677,"hash":702,"ext":548,"mime":551,"size":703,"url":704,"previewUrl":15,"provider":217,"provider_metadata":15,"createdAt":15,"updatedAt":15,"publishedAt":705,"isUrlSigned":94},8256,"v1l4k12enxhczdvqhy2ajd4p","641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears.png",{"s":678,"sd":684,"xs":690,"thumbnail":696},{"ext":548,"url":679,"hash":680,"mime":551,"name":681,"path":15,"size":682,"width":171,"height":171,"sizeInBytes":683,"isUrlSigned":94},"https://ce-assets.prod.circularity-gap.world/s_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears_51b9a7432a.png","s_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears_51b9a7432a","s_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears.png",561.46,561459,{"ext":548,"url":685,"hash":686,"mime":551,"name":687,"path":15,"size":688,"width":187,"height":187,"sizeInBytes":689,"isUrlSigned":94},"https://ce-assets.prod.circularity-gap.world/sd_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears_51b9a7432a.png","sd_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears_51b9a7432a","sd_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears.png",1207.81,1207809,{"ext":548,"url":691,"hash":692,"mime":551,"name":693,"path":15,"size":694,"width":195,"height":195,"sizeInBytes":695,"isUrlSigned":94},"https://ce-assets.prod.circularity-gap.world/xs_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears_51b9a7432a.png","xs_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears_51b9a7432a","xs_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears.png",151.49,151493,{"ext":548,"url":697,"hash":698,"mime":551,"name":699,"path":15,"size":700,"width":212,"height":212,"sizeInBytes":701,"isUrlSigned":94},"https://ce-assets.prod.circularity-gap.world/thumbnail_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears_51b9a7432a.png","thumbnail_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears_51b9a7432a","thumbnail_641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears.png",66.99,66987,"641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears_51b9a7432a",618.64,"https://ce-assets.prod.circularity-gap.world/641c1b2810eb63d7cae3d8d5_Balears_51b9a7432a.png","2025-09-01T06:31:23.338Z",{"id":707,"documentId":708,"title":709,"slug":710,"type":574,"program_old":15,"content":15,"content_md":711,"publication_date":712,"resource_programs_text":27,"thumbnail_url":713,"createdAt":15,"updatedAt":714,"publishedAt":715,"thumbnail":716},11343,"j9xj4g9cl8ih5uuwovldenke","A guide for circularity in the urban environment ","a-guide-for-circularity-in-the-urban-environment","\u003Cp id=\"\">Almost 60% of the built environment required to accommodate the earth’s urban population by 2050 remains to be built (\u003Cem id=\"\">Circularity Gap Report, 2021\u003C/em>).&nbsp;\u003Cbr>\u003C/p>\u003Cp id=\"\">So how will we make sure that cities can meet our universal need for shelter within the limits of our planet?&nbsp;\u003Cbr>\u003C/p>\u003Cp id=\"\">The urban built environment should be a ‘living’ system in which building materials and products are optimally used and reused, a system that operates within the boundaries of our planet, preserves the (business) value of its resources, and increases the number of valuable jobs and skills in a city.&nbsp;\u003Cbr>\u003C/p>\u003Cp id=\"\">This guidance document is the fourth of a series of resources produced by the European Investment Bank and Circle Economy for the Circular City Centre (C3), a competence and resource centre that aims to support EU cities in their circular economy transition.
