Sustainable Development Goals (SDG's) as a compass towards waste-free economy

The Sustainable Development Goals are our compass toward a clean, fair and sustainable world by 2030. These 17 United Nations goals provide a handle for companies and organizations to make a positive impact. Milgro uses the SDGs as inspiration to achieve a waste-free world.

The importance of the SDGs for Milgro

Milgro strives for a world where waste does not exist (SDG 12). Careful use of resources and sustainable recycling are necessary steps to stop global warming (SDG 13). It is essential that companies integrate Natural Capital Management into their operations so that we stop pollution of our environment and start contributing to the restoration of biodiversity in water (SDG 14) and on land (SDG 15). We cannot achieve a world free of waste alone. Milgro work with waste disposers in improving their ecological impact of waste streams and with receivers to close circular chains, accelerate the circular transition and stop ecological damage from recycling (SDG 17).

More about the SDG’s

SDG 12 interfaces with the circular process, which is our core business. 
A different view of waste is needed to achieve goals. We must work together to ensure that our precious raw materials no longer become waste. Extending the life of waste does not offer a future-proof perspective; managing natural capital does.

SDG 13 is inextricably linked to both the resource transition and the energy transition.

To meet climate targets, a transition to reusable energy is necessary. However, this in turn requires precious raw materials. Careful handling of raw materials is a necessary step to stop global warming.

SDG 14 and 15 embrace the protection of nature and oceans. And the preservation of biodiversity. We are happy to work on that: reconnecting nature! 

Nature in its purest form is pre-eminently circular. For Milgro that is a shining example. Therefore, managing natural capital is central to us. If Natural Capital Management becomes part of the daily operations of companies and organizations, we accelerate the circular economy.

SDG 17 fits right in with our business practices. To achieve our goal, we must work with others. 
Connecting is the essence of our business. Sharing knowledge and technology worldwide is part of this. Milgro is the connector between disposers and receivers. We work together with more than 500 recipients of used raw materials. In our collaborations we strive for profitable sustainability. Earth & earn together.
