  • Standardization Framework for Sustainability from Circular Economy 4.0
    sustainability Article Standardization Framework for Sustainability from Circular Economy 4.0 María Jesús Ávila-Gutiérrez * , Alejandro Martín-Gómez, Francisco Aguayo-González and Antonio Córdoba-Roldán Design Engineering Dept, University of Seville, Escuela Politécnica Superior, Virgen de África 7, 41011 Seville, Spain; [email protected] (A.M.-G.); [email protected] (F.A.-G.); [email protected] (A.C.-R.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 8 October 2019; Accepted: 15 November 2019; Published: 18 November 2019 Abstract: The circular economy (CE) is widely known as a way to implement and achieve sustainability, mainly due to its contribution towards the separation of biological and technical nutrients under cyclic industrial metabolism. The incorporation of the principles of the CE in the links of the value chain of the various sectors of the economy strives to ensure circularity, safety, and efficiency. The framework proposed is aligned with the goals of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development regarding the orientation towards the mitigation and regeneration of the metabolic rift by considering a double perspective. Firstly, it strives to conceptualize the CE as a paradigm of sustainability. Its principles are established, and its techniques and tools are organized into two frameworks oriented towards causes (cradle to cradle) and effects (life cycle assessment), and these are structured under the three pillars of sustainability, for their projection within the proposed framework. Secondly, a framework is established to facilitate the implementation of the CE with the use of standards, which constitute the requirements, tools, and indicators to control each life cycle phase, and of key enabling technologies (KETs) that add circular value 4.0 to the socio-ecological transition.

  • A Review of the Landscape of Guidance, Tools and Standards For
    ICSI Guidance, tools and standards Action Track | Position paper JULY, 2021 A Review of the Landscape of Guidance, Tools and Standards for Sustainable and Resilient Infrastructure 2 A REVIEW OF THE LANDSCAPE OF GUIDANCE, TOOLS AND STANDARDS FOR SUSTAINABLE AND RESILIENT INFRASTRUCTURE ABOUT ICSI The International Coalition for Sustainable Infrastructure (ICSI) was founded in 2019 by The Resilience Shift, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and its ASCE Foundation, the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy (GCoM), WSP and LA Metro, among others. It aims to bring together the entire value chain of infrastructure and unlock the opportunity of using engineers as a driving force for positive impact. It will give engineers a voice in ensuring that we pick the right infrastructure projects to fund and then design and build them with resilience in mind from the outset to ensure safe, sustainable and resilient infrastructure for all our futures. ICSI delivers industry change by engaging members and their organisations through Action Tracks that seek to understand the gaps and barriers to the development of sustainable and resilient infrastructure. ICSI responds with specific actions to address these challenges, and engages stakeholders who are instrumental in delivering actions and adopting new resources, practices and behaviours.
