Main Article Content
Resumo
A crescente consciencialização da sociedade para os problemas ambientais, aquecimento global, consumo massivo de recursos e aumento das desigualdades, tem exercido uma forte pressão sobre os países e organizações, estando na base da Agenda Global 2030. Nestecontexto, a Economia Circular é considerada uma abordagem fundamental para alcançar alguns desses objetivos. Este trabalho visa discutir a relação entre a Economia Circular e o Desenvolvimento Sustentável e fazer uma análise comparativa, no contexto europeu, à evolução de Portugal para alguns dos indicadores específicos estabelecidos na Agenda 2030. Para tal foi desenvolvida uma pesquisa exploratória e descritiva, que incluiu a revisão de literatura e a análise e tratamento de dados secundários. A análise indica que, apesar da evolução positiva em vários dos indicadores analisados, o desempenho português, em termos globais, está abaixo do desempenho médio europeu. Adicionalmente, para alguns indicadores a evolução ocorreu em sentido contrário ao desejável. Apesar da sociedade, e cidadãos, estarem mais conscientes e atentos a produtos, processos e entidades “sustentáveis”, há ainda um longo caminho a percorrer para que os princípios da Economia Circular e do Desenvolvimento Sustentável sejam plenamente reconhecidos e aplicados.
