“Taiwan is the most important part of the global supply chain,” said Chairman Eugene Chien (簡又新) of TAISE during the forum. From a supply chain perspective, circular economy can help reduce more than 45% of the global greenhouse gas. However, rising material extraction has shrunk global circularity, decreasing from 8.6% in 2020 to 7.2% in 2030.
