newly introduced reforms will propel it into a growth trajectory exceeding 8%
which will cross the $4 trillion GDP mark. At the same time, pressing issues
like Climate change, Environmental pollution, and dwindling natural resources
are the major challenging issues that certainly require resource efficiency and
promote the circular economy. Therefore, India needs to adopt sustainable
production and consumption with the minimum content of recyclable material,
effective waste management, and a scientific way of recycling."
