Uwe Lahl has delivered a keynote speech on <strong>\u201cTen claims for the Circular Economy\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0at the Berlin Conference on Waste Management and Energy 2026 (BKAWE26) on January 28, 2026. Back in spring 2025, he and his co-authors analyzed resource policy and waste management priorities in ten areas of action and identified key points that they believe can advance Europe as an industrial location (see our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bzl-gmbh.de\/en\/europe-after-2030-the-development-of-waste-management-into-an-industrial-location-factor-muell-und-abfall-2025-in-german\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news item from May 16, 2025<\/a>). They focused on plastics and biomass because these are important sources of renewable carbon for industry in Europe. In view of the differing but also critical responses to the paper, this analysis was refined and regulatory proposals were added for a legal framework that would enable investment in climate protection and the future of the chemical industry.<\/p>\n<p>The key points developed here have since been combined with research findings from the nova-Institut and also published (see our <a
