Two diagrams are shown side by side; the Linear Economy is shown on the left and the Circular Economy is shown on the right. The stages of the Linear Economy are as follows: Taking leads to making, making leads to using, using leads to disposing, and disposing leads to polluting. In contrast to the Linear Economy, the stages of the Circular Economy are as follows: Making leads to using, using leads to reusing, reusing leads to remaking, remaking leads to recycling, recycling leads back to making, and the cycle continues.
