The forestry industry of Spain in the circular economy, is its integration possible?
Abstract
In recent years, one of the initiatives that is being supported by different organizations and administrations with a greater degree of consensus is the circular economy. An initiative whose main objective is to unite the economy with sustainability, generating added value to the raw material, favouring recycling or creating little waste. The aim is to create a political framework aimed at generating sustainable, inclusive growth that allows growth and employment to be created. In Spain there are already several documents on circular economy, in which certain sectors have a series of characteristics that link them more directly such as the forestry industry, where wood is its main raw material and it is a renewable, reusable and recyclable material. Therefore, in this work a first evaluation of the situation in which the Spain forest industry is located within the circular economy is carried out.
