“…For instance, Asongu and Odhiambo examined the relevance of inclusive development in modulating the role of governance on environmental degradation [23]; Kalkanci and his colleagues put forward an "inclusive innovation" approach to discuss sustainability [24]; Ikeda and Managi developed a framework for evaluating the sustainability of regions, predicting the inclusive wealth index (IWI) under different future scenarios from 2015 to 2100 [25]; Kurniawan and Managi explored that shared socioeconomic pathways with high investments in broad societal development are associated with the highest growth in inclusive wealth [26]; Siddiqi and Collins discussed how the emerging concept of inclusive innovation bridges dimensions of environment and social inclusivity [27]. Some scholars have designed indicators of circular economy as evaluating instruments for sustainability and efficiency in wastewater treatment [28,29].…”

The ecological environment of urban water resources in the Yangtze River Economic Belt (YREB) is in a huge challenge; yet, while myriad studies have investigated the carrying capacity or sustainable utilization of Chinese water resources, few to none have looked at the inclusive sustainable development of water resources. In this article, a new concept of urban water inclusive sustainability (UWIS) is firstly proposed, and the conceptual framework of ASFII and a five-dimensional indicator system are developed, integrating availability, sustainability, friendliness, inclusiveness and innovation. The panel data of 38 cities in the YREB are adopted from 2008 to 2018 to measure UWIS and five development indexes by the TOPSIS (technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution) and entropy method. Moreover, the characteristics of the temporal–spatial evolution of the overall system and subsystems coupling coordination are described using the coupling coordination degree model. Key factors that hinder UWIS are identified through the obstacle degree model. The results indicate that the overall UWIS showed a gradual upward trend at a lower to medium level from 2008 to 2018 and a friendliness > sustainability > inclusiveness > innovation > availability index. The UWIS from high to low is YRDUA (Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration), MRYRUA (middle reaches of the Yangtze River urban agglomeration) and CCUA (Chengdu–Chongqing urban agglomeration). The 38 cities are in low-level coordination, and their temporal characteristics show a trend of economy > science and technology > water resources > environment > societal system, YRDUA > MRYRUA > CCUA. The spatial differentiation is manifested as high in the east and low in the west. The main obstacles come from 12 factors, such as the water resources utilization rate, etc. The findings of our study will be a scientific reference for the Chinese government to track UWIS and ensure urban water resources security in the YREB.

“…The concept of the Circular Economy has gradually gained prominence in political agendas (Brennan et al, 2015), for example, in the European Commission, through the comprehensive package of the European Circular Economy (European Commission, 2015) and, in China, through the Law for the Promotion of the Circular Economy (Lieder and Rashid, 2016). From a scientific point of view, the Circular Economy (CE) is also gaining increasing attention, which has led to the publication of a large number of case studies, reviews, scientific reports, and research articles, etc., aimed at developing the concept of the Circular Economy (CE) (Yap, 2005;Andersen, 2007;Charonis, 2012;EMF, 2012;Lett, 2014;Naustdalslid, 2014;Prendeville et al, 2014;Club of Rome, 2015;Argudo-Garcia et al, 2017;Molina-Moreno et al, 2019).…”

In recent years, the concept of the Circular Economy has acquired greater traction, both in the research community and in wider society, as an instrument that provides innumerable methodologies with which to face the environmental, social, and environmental challenges caused by the linear production model. This study focuses on analyzing the degree of advancement of the Circular Economy in the scientific field through a bibliometric analysis (or scientometrics) of 5,007 research articles available in Scopus database and published during the period 2005–2007. The main research characteristics are presented, and the Paris Climate Conference (COP21), held on December 12, 2015, is highlighted as a key driver of this particular line of research. The analysis revealed the main authors, journals, subject area, countries and current and future lines of research, finding that the Circular Economy is a paradigm with environmental, economic and social implications, both for the productive system and for consumers.

“…Waste management is currently carried out in the following order: production, presentation, collection, transport, and treatment. According to Argudo-García et al [8], all waste should be reused, and for that, circular economy aims to minimize the elimination. Figure 1 shows the transition from a linear to a circular economy model.…”

The circular economy aims to reduce the volume of waste generated in the world, transforming it into resources. The concept of indicator of circular economy was introduced to evaluate the improvement obtained regarding efficiency in terms of reduction, reuse and recycling of waste generated on the campus of the University of Lome (Togo). These indicators showed that 59.5% of the waste generated on the campus in 2018 could be introduced into the circular economy paradigm through composting, and 27.0% of the energy consumed could be replaced by clean energy obtained from biogas. The entire plastic fraction can be introduced into the circular economy paradigm by reusing plastic bottles and selling the rest in the port of the city. Thus, the income obtained could range from €15.5/day in 2018 to €34.5/day in 2027. Concerning old tires, 1.5% of the rubber needed to pave the entire roadway of the campus could be replaced by the waste generated by the tires currently existing there. Consequently, waste management on the campus could be controlled thanks to these indicators, and this could serve as a model for the rest of the country.
