The Draghi report is not big on the #CircularEconomy:
"Recycling of most other waste streams, including chemicals and plastics, to the contrary, does not have a viable business case at present. [...] Recycled materials can replace fossil feedstock, but the recycling comes with costs in collection, sorting and processing that make it more expensive than virgin material, and the recyclates tend to be of limted quality, making it difficult to justify a green premium."
