It is a business-as-usual scenario - without any additional policy measures to increase resource efficiency and decrease resource use. This scenario was calculated with an econometric model.

10. www.greenindustryplatform.org MAJOR STEPS TOWARDS DECOUPLING A Comprehensive, Consistent and Holistic Approach in all Productive Activities Greening of Existing IndustriesAdapting production processes to increase material and energy efficiency, redcue waste, safely manage chemicals, phase out toxic substances, use renewable energy sources Re-Design of ProductsTo optimize resource use in production and during lifetime, enable their re-use and/or remanufacturing, and allow safe disposal or recycling Dematerialization of the EconomyReducing the material footprint of industrial economic activity, for instance through new business models Closing the Recycling LoopEnsure the recyclability of all non-renewable materials

11. Global Resource Efficiency Savings Opportunities • US$ 2.9 trillion savings in 2030 from capturing resource productivity potential • Rising to US$ 3.7 trillion if carbon is priced at $30 per tonne, subsidies on water, energy, and agriculture are eliminated, and energy taxes are removed • 15 opportunities can deliver about 75% of total resource productivity benefits, for example: • Building energy efficiency • Reducing food waste • Reducing municipal water leakage • Higher energy efficiency in the iron and steel industry • Increasing transport fuel efficiency • Improving end-use steel efficiency • Improving power plant efficiency 11 Source: McKinsey (2011)

21. Recycling Recycling Industry • Recycled materials could supply 40% of the global raw material needs today • Approximately 1.6 million people worldwide are active now in the recycling industry • They handle more than 600 million tonnes of recyclables every year • With an annual turnover of more than $200 billion, similar to the GDP of countries such as Portugal, Colombia and Malaysia, the sector has already become a key driver for tomorrow’s sustainable development • About 10% of this amount is spent on new technologies, research and development that contribute to creating high-skilled jobs and making recycling more efficient and environmentally sound.

22. www.greenindustryplatform.org THE GREEN INDUSTRY INITIATIVE • Launched by UNIDO in 2009, the Green Industry Initiative is the sector-strategy for the realization of Green Economy and Green Growth in the manufacturing and allied industry sectors. • Green Industry promotes “industrial production and development that does not come at the expense of the health of natural systems or lead to adverse human health outcomes” by: • Scaling up and mainstreaming proven practices to reduce negative environmental impacts • Transforming manufacturing and associated sectors into more effective contributors to sustainable industrial development • Helping enterprises improve resource productivity and environmental performance (greening of existing industry), and • Establishing new operations delivering environmental goods and services (creating new green industries) The Green Industry Initiative is fully in line with the 2012 United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20) outcome document
