In this context, in December 2015, the European Commission approved its first circular economy action plan, with 54 actions to be taken by different European countries to ensure that the transition to this economic model is carried out efficiently, responsibly, and always considering economic competitiveness and job creation. The five main areas to be addressed in this plan are related to plastic use, combating food waste, the use of essential raw materials, construction and demolition, and finally, biomass and derived products ( bio-based ).
