City of Paris
Paris
Since June 2018, the City of Paris has embraced Collaborative Recycling, a cleantech initiative under the DataCity program, which brings together industry, startups, and local authorities to create smarter, more sustainable cities. In collaboration with Coreyclage, Paris City Hall, and Suez, this service allows citizens to propose bulky, reusable items to recycling associations or individuals for repurposing.
This initiative addresses the challenge of managing bulky waste, reducing landfill contributions and energy-intensive recycling. It fosters sustainability by conserving resources and promotes community engagement by encouraging responsible consumption and donation. In 2020 alone, over 25,000 items were reused, showcasing the program's environmental and social benefits.
Collaborative Recycling highlights Paris’s leadership in leveraging innovation and collaboration to address urban challenges, setting a benchmark for sustainable, data-driven solutions in city planning.
The linear economy is driving us toward environmental problems. Unfortunately, it is often easier to throw away a product and buy a new one, no matter if it is still usable or not. This technology and services use a circular approach and sway behaviour away from “buy-use-toss-buy” cycle. When others see waste, we see resources. Collaborative Recycling supports private or public corporations to help them to decrease the amount of waste produced and handle the whole process (inventory, reuse, move, tracking We created a webapp to simplify inventory, an online donation platform to match supply and demand and a traceability tool to keep a record of items redistributed. By giving for free to recipients from the network (local association, social buisnesses, artists’ collectives etc.), clients give second life to their items.
