The Ellen MacArthur Foundation in North America

The circular economy is fundamental to supporting growth and prosperity in North America. As the pace of technological, environmental and social change accelerates in both the United States and Canada, it’s crucial to create enduring economic systems that secure the continent’s supply chains and make the most of its rich natural resources.

We work at the intersection of business and policy to accelerate circular solutions. We help leading companies across North America and around the world to implement circular business models, advance market solutions. and engage with policy makers on effective regulations at the national and subnational levels.

Our North America team is focused on how to use circular principles and technology to address some of the fastest growing waste streams, including electronics and the valuable critical minerals resident in e-scrap, as well as textiles and plastics.
