Circular economy vs. linear economy models in sea sand management. Source: Adapted from Netherlands Circular Economy UN Environment Programme (2023) Refer to the image caption for details.The framework shows two models. The top model contains three horizontally arranged text boxes labeled from left to right as “Limited Extraction (Regulated)”, “Efficient Utilization (Value - Added)”, and “Recycling and Restoration (Ecosystem)”. The left box labeled “Limited Extraction (Regulated)” connects with the middle text box labeled “Efficient Utilization (Value - Added)” with a rightward arrow. The middle text box connects to the right text box labeled “Recycling and Restoration (Ecosystem)” with a rightward arrow. The left text box is also connected to the right text box with a line labeled “Sustainable Regeneration Cycle”. Similarly, the bottom framework titled “Linear Economy Model (Indonesia - Current Policy)” contains three horizontally arranged text boxes labeled from left to right as “Large - Scale Extraction (Unregulated)”, “Raw Material Export (No Processing)”, and “Environmental Degradation (No Recovery)”. The left text box labeled “Large - Scale Extraction (Unregulated)” is connected to the center text box labeled “Raw Material Export (No Processing)” with a rightward arrow, and the center text box is connected to the right text box labeled “Environmental Degradation (No Recovery)” with a rightward arrow.
