The Tokyo Metropolitan Government is collaborating with private businesses for implementing business models aimed at reducing single-use plastics dramatically such as reuse, or innovative recycling technology such as closed-loop recycling technology, in order to achieve the sustainable use of plastics with net zero CO2 emissions by 2050. Businesses for circular economy have been developing also in Europe. The EU-Japan Centre contributed to this online event organised on 26 November 2021 by mobilizing a number of European businesses and organisations, notably, IKEA,  Petcore Europe, Circular Plastics Alliance, MultiCycle.
