Cradle to Cradle verovert de wereld, maar vooral Nederland. Het inspirerende verhaal van de bedenkers, Michael Braungart en William McDonough, vormt daarbij een belangrijke motor. Op tal van plaatsen en in diverse bedrijven gaat men enthousiast met het concept aan de slag. C2C maakt creativiteit los en leidt tot innovaties. Het leidt echter ook tot nieuwe vragen. Waar begin ik? Hoe krijg ik anderen enthousiast? Hoe realiseer ik C2C binnen een traditionele infrastructuur? Waar vind ik partners? Hoe kom ik aan de juiste kennis en materialen? Bij de mensen die iets willen met het concept bestaat vooral behoefte aan praktische informatie. Maar het C2C-concept laat zich niet vangen in regels of stappen. Elke specifieke situatie vraagt om een eigen aanpak. Omdat een blauwdruk ontbreekt, zijn het vooral de voorbeelden van anderen die inspireren en waar lessen uit kunnen worden getrokken. Kern van het boek vormen een vijftiental voorbeelden van Nederlandse bedrijven en organisaties die het C2C-concept toepassen. Of ze nu al een product of dienst hebben ontwikkeld, het voornemen hebben of midden in het proces zitten.

Plastic has shaped our daily lives like no other material. Originally associated with convenience, progress, even revolution, today plastic seems to have lost its utopian appeal. Plastic is everywhere, yet most conspicuous as waste and as a key factor in the global environmental crisis. This book examines the success story of plastic in the twentieth century and at the same time presents the different discourses on how we should tackle the global plastic waste crisis and find solutions that lead us towards a plastic economy that is truly circular. Mark Miodownik, Susan Freinkel, and Nanjala Nyabola each contribute an essay that sheds light on the history of plastics from 1850 to today. A material-rich visual chronology illustrates how consumers' perception of plastics has changed over the decades. Brief descriptions of a selection of 40 objects from renowned collections examine the importance of plastics for material culture. Reprints of fundamental texts about the history of plastics from Alexander Parkes (1865) to Max Liboiron (2018) provide a context from the history of ideas. The book reflects the current discourse and state of research on plastic with numerous individual interviews and panel discussions that were held with designers, representatives from industry, researchers, and environmental activists. Underpinning these conversations are comprehensive data visualizations on plastic production and consumption, recycling.
