As part of a legal symposium, the BDE subjected the German Circular Economy Act to a \"transformation check\". This also addressed the question of whether the new \"German pace\" can be transferred to planning and investment in circular economy projects.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Under the heading \"Planning acceleration as a prerequisite for transformation: Is the circular economy of particular public interest?<\/strong>- Right of way for resource efficiency and climate protection\", the BDE conducted a \"transformation check\" of the Circular Economy Act as part of a legal symposium. Experts from science and practice examined in particular whether the new \"German pace\" of LNG terminals can be transferred to planning and investment in circular economy projects and whether the regulatory framework created for the expansion of renewable energies can also be utilised for investment projects in the waste management sector, e.g. for new recycling technologies. Lawyer Dr Olaf Konzak (Cologne) made this clear, that the Circular Economy Act needs to be readjusted<\/strong>so that the legislation actually achieves the universally supported goal of away from consuming and towards using recyclable materials<\/strong> to achieve this goal.<\/p>

\"The symposium clearly highlighted the need for change, which we will continue to campaign for and also put forward concrete proposals. The Closed Substance Cycle Waste Management Act has always been still caught up in the old waste legislation from the last century<\/strong>. Anyone who takes the circular economy seriously must also consider recycled raw materials and secondary raw materials as an essential pillar of the raw material supply for the manufacturing industry. Legislation must ensure a level playing field for raw materials regardless of their origin.<\/strong> The circular economy concept must also be reflected in the paragraphs of the Circular Economy Act and must not remain just a heading.\"<\/p>

BDE President Peter Kurth<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

BDE Managing Director Jens Loschwitz adds: \"The climate targets are becoming increasingly ambitious. The EU wants to be climate-neutral by 2050, Germany by 2045 and some federal states such as Bavaria by 2040. So far, however, the \"new Germany\" pace has been limited to individual projects such as the construction of LNG terminals. If you want to achieve the ambitious climate targets, there is no way around it, massively shorten planning and approval times for transformation projects before the end of this legislative period.<\/strong> The transformation of the economy towards a circular economy is essential. The heart of the European Green Deals<\/a> is the circular economy action plan.\"<\/p>
