Making Progress in Circular Economy
Making progress in the circularity of our products and waste is another way of reducing our environmental footprint. We do this through our production of biofuels, biogas, and circular polymers. At our sites, promoting the circular management of resources starts with responsible management of our waste.

- Indicator: Circular management of resources and waste
The article highlights TotalEnergies’ efforts in promoting the circularity of their products and waste management as a means of reducing their environmental footprint. This aligns with SDG 12, which focuses on responsible consumption and production. Specifically, the article mentions the production of biofuels, biogas, and circular polymers as part of their circularity initiatives.
Based on the content of the article, the specific target under SDG 12 that can be identified is Target 12.5, which aims to substantially reduce waste generation through prevention, reduction, recycling, and reuse. TotalEnergies’ focus on circular management of resources and waste aligns with this target.
The article does not explicitly mention any indicators related to measuring progress towards Target 12.5. However, the concept of circular management of resources and waste can be considered as an indicator in itself, as it implies a shift towards more sustainable and efficient use of resources and a reduction in waste generation.
