Abstract
Global population growth and unsustainable exploitation of natural resources have created crises such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and a range of pollution. The linear economic model, which focuses on resource extraction and waste generation, contributes to the degradation of ecosystems and the destruction of biodiversity. The circular economy, as a novel model, focuses on reducing the consumption of natural resources, recycling materials, and minimizing waste, and can help conserve biodiversity. Through a meta-analysis of 12 selected articles from studies on the effects of the circular economy on increasing environmental resilience and creating opportunities for environmental improvement and self-repair, this paper examines the impacts of the circular economy on biodiversity and shows how this model can help reduce environmental degradation and achieve sustainable development. With these explanations, it is clear that by combining conservation policies and the principles of the circular economy and its outputs, we can restore ecological balance and create a sustainable future.
