Materials
Economy
There is a cycle to almost everything in this
world. For example, humans, trees and rain each work within a certain cycle but
how about the cycle of materials economy? Most people don’t know who is behind
it or who participates in it. It is mostly governments and corporations who are
behind this way of living and the public are the ones participating in it.
Based on the “Story of Stuff” video, this cycle goes through five main phases:
extraction, production, distribution, consumption and disposal. From my point
of view, the UAE does participate in this system but is also starting to use a
new system that is environment friendly, for instance like building green
communities and the use of renewable sources such as the solar energy.
