The circular economy isn’t just another buzzword cluttering your LinkedIn feed—it’s reshaping how smart companies tell their stories. And frankly, most are getting it wrong. That’s why Circular Business Review (CBR), a platform known for dissecting—not celebrating—circular economy claims, has partnered with Energy News, the global energy sector’s go-to source for news, analysis, and strategy on energy transition.
