development is part of a strategy of circular and local economy. ECT reuses inert soil from construction sites in the Paris region, working with local communities to create green, undeveloped and sustainable landscapes. Some fifteen ECT projects are currently underway in the Paris region. Every year, they reuse almost 15 million tonnes of excavated soil.The day-to-day management of these material flows raises questions about sustainable urban planning, urban metabolism, development and the attractiveness of territories. The circular economy as proposed by ECT encourages the creation of positive loops. What is the circular economy?
