CIRCULAR ECONOMY INITIATIVES: CIRCULAR INDIANA CONTINUED MOVING TOWARD AN EMPHASIS ON STRENGTHENING THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY, WHICH ENCOMPASSES MORE THAN RECYCLING AND COMPOSTING, AND IS DEFINED BY DESIGNING OUT WASTE AND POLLUTION, KEEPING PRODUCTS AND MATERIALS IN USE, AND REGENERATING NATURAL SYSTEMS. THE ORGANIZATION CHANGED ITS NAME (FROM INDIANA RECYCLING COALITION TO CIRCULAR INDIANA) TO DEMONSTRATE THIS COMMITMENT. WE CONTINUED LEADING THE INDIANAPOLIS CIRCULAR ECONOMY INITIATIVE (ICEI) STAKEHOLDER GROUP TO ASSIST THE CITY OF INDIANAPOLIS IN ACHIEVING ITS THRIVE INDIANAPOLIS GOALS RELATED TO WASTE & RECYCLING. ICEI GATHERS OVER TWO DOZEN STAKEHOLDERS REPRESENTING LOCAL AND STATEWIDE PERSPECTIVES FROM HUMAN SERVICES AGENCIES, GOVERNMENTAL AND NON-GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES, ARTS AND CULTURE ORGANIZATIONS, NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATIONS, BUSINESSES, AND WASTE AND RECYCLING ORGANIZATIONS.
