I’ve spent years tracking the turbulence of our times – the converging crises, the economic uncertainties, the political whiplash. Yet even as we navigate what feels like a global breakdown, I see the outlines of an unprecedented breakthrough. A new circular economy paradigm is emerging from the wreckage of the old linear model. I believe that the circular economy – exemplified by initiatives like [Una Terra VC](https://ageoftransformation.org/why-the-circular-economy-is-a-multi-trillion-opportunity-this-decade/unaterra.vc) – is poised to become one of the fastest growing sectors of the global economy over the coming decade. Crucially, this isn’t happening just because it’s _morally right_ or _environmentally friendly_ (though it is), but because of fundamental economics.
