This was explained by the President of the Maresme Waste Consortium and Mayor of Matar\u00f3, <strong>David Bote<\/strong>, during a day of reflection and debate on the <strong>challenge of sustainability<\/strong>, held on Wednesday 20 April at the Sant Pau Modernist Building.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In Matar\u00f3 we have long been ahead of the curve when it comes to facing the challenges we have as a society&#8221;, said Bote, who explained: &#8220;We started out as pioneers in waste treatment and now we will also be pioneers with the <strong>Matar\u00f3 Maresme Circular Park<\/strong>, a project that seeks to make both industry and citizenship embrace the circular economy&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The conference, with the slogan <strong>&#8220;The future of the planet begins with the circular economy&#8221;,<\/strong> was organised by <strong>El Peri\u00f3dico<\/strong> and <strong>Prensa Ib\u00e9rica<\/strong> and was attended by the Catalan Minister for Climate Action, Food and Rural Agenda, <strong>Teresa Jord\u00e0<\/strong>, as well as the director of the Catalan Waste Agency, <strong>Isaac Peraire<\/strong>, and the president delegate of the Climate Action Area of the Barcelona Provincial Council, <strong>Xesco Gomar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Reducing the waste of raw materials<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&#8220;What we are doing today cannot put <strong>tomorrow&#8217;s resources<\/strong> at risk&#8221;, stressed <strong>S\u00f2nia Llorens<\/strong>, director of the Chair of Circular Economy of the TecnoCampus, who opened the forum with an informative talk in which she explained to the attendees what the circular economy consists of and what advantages it offers with respect to the current economic model. &#8220;The circular economy is an economic concept that aims to produce goods and services while <strong>reducing the consumption and waste of raw materials<\/strong>, water and energy sources&#8221;, summarised Llorens.<\/p>\n<p>The central part of the event revolved around two round tables. The first, led by institutions and municipal entities such as the President of the Maresme Waste Consortium and Mayor of Matar\u00f3, David Bote, addressed the challenge of waste management.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have to move towards the change of paradigm of the circular economy and <strong>zero waste<\/strong>, and for this the <strong>symbiosis of work between administrations<\/strong> is key,&#8221; said Isaac Peraire, who stressed: &#8220;Matar\u00f3 is a benchmark city in this regard.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Carles Salesa: &#8220;We want to influence the prevention and reuse of waste&#8221;<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The second round table, which gave voice to the director of the Maresme Waste Consortium, <strong>Carles Salesa<\/strong>, and other business representatives, focused on circular economy projects that have emerged in recent years and which are helping to reduce excess waste.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Five years ago we decided to make a strategic and paradigm shift,&#8221; explained Salesa, who continued: &#8220;Instead of focusing only on waste treatment and recovery, we also want to influence <strong>waste prevention and reuse<\/strong>. To this end, the Maresme Waste Consortium, which serves a million inhabitants (in the entire Maresme region and also in Vall\u00e8s Oriental), is promoting the Matar\u00f3 Maresme Circular Park, a pioneering project in Europe where <strong>waste will be converted into new resources<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The future Park will bring together industry, citizens, academia and public administration in order to promote the circular economy in all areas and thus ensure a much more responsible future.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8689\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img
