Accelerating reuse models to achieve a world free of plastic waste
The World Economic Forum’s Consumers Beyond Waste initiative is working with partners to rapidly scale reuse models that will eliminate plastic waste.
打造负责任的消费模式、实现商业与社会效益。
第四次工业革命通过颠覆性技术,创造了更多价值机会,从而对消费方式产生着变革性影响。消费支出对全球GDP贡献率约为60%,因此技术的价值创造能力对于确保整个发达经济体与新兴经济体的发展至关重要。为了充分利用这一机会,在150多个组织成员的积极参与下,平台制定了几项优先发展的具体行动倡议。
尽管人口结构在不断变化,但我们仍始终致力于满足消费者的期望。为此,我们积极推动那些有望改变整个价值链的新兴技术的应用(从人工智能、物联网到区块链)。
我们的平台在为新型消费者关系模式提供支持的同时,也在努力解决大数据领域出现的信任度与透明度问题。通过与成员及合作伙伴合作,我们可同时应对随之而来的各项社会挑战,其中包括城乡差距、过度消费导致的环境退化,以及为减轻不平等现象所开展的员工再培训等。
