Cleveland's circular city road map
February 19, 2025

Following the subprime mortgage crisis, which left Cleveland, Ohio, with 30,000 vacant lots, the city is now forging a new path. Through innovative circular economy strategies, Cleveland and its communities are building resilience, creating jobs, and fostering sustainable investment. This approach demonstrates how to rebuild a prosperous local economy, enhancing quality of life and allowing nature to thrive.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, an international charity, champions the circular economy—a system designed to eliminate waste, circulate materials, and regenerate nature. Explore their work and Cleveland's transformation on the Ellen MacArthur Foundation YouTube channel or their website. Connect with them on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.
