Circular material use rate under different exploratory scenarios.
Chart (static)

The analysis of the changes to waste and material flows provides only a first indicative estimate of how the CMUR might change (assuming other parameters remain constant), without implementing a full mass-balancing exercise. The effect of selected (isolated) variations in the underlying parameters of the CMUR indicator should be interpreted as exploratory scenario results.
- Developed by the EEA and the European Topic Centre on Circular Economy and Resource Use (ETC CE). A more detailed description of the scenarios and how they are modelled is available in ETC CE (2023). CMUR trend 2004-2021: Eurostat (2023a).
