Understanding the Limited Uptake of Reprocessed Construction Materials: A Pro‐Environmental Behaviour Perspective

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reverse logistics (RL) aims to direct demolition waste (DW) away from landfills towards alternative uses by converting it into reprocessed construction materials (RCMs). However, recent studies indicate that the uptake of RCMs remains limited, adversely affecting the effectiveness of RL for DW. Therefore, developing markets for these materials

Enhancing Circular Economic Activities of e‐Waste Pickers in South Africa: Using Korten's Four Generations Strategies as Framework

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT E‐waste pickers play a valuable role in the circular economy and divert waste from landfills. Despite their contributions to the economy, informal e‐waste pickers work in very adverse conditions. With a view to improving their livelihoods and working conditions and possibly increasing their integration, Korten's four generations framework is ...
