Without people, new solutions cannot be designed or engineered, and climate targets will be missed. Strategies that help societies to become more circular—use less, use longer, use again and make clean—are ultimately labour-intensive. It takes only one job to incinerate 10,000 tonnes of materials, but [36 jobs](https://www.circle-economy.com/resources/thinking-beyond-borders-to-achieve-social-justice-in-a-global-circular-economy) are needed to recycle the same 10,000 tonnes and up to 296 jobs to refurbish and reuse them.

That’s why Khagram is spearheading the Global Carbon Removal Partnership, an international consortium of sustainability advocates working to create financial and policy incentives to achieve climate restoration.
