On 13 November 2025, the City cinema in the K\u00fcnstlerhaus<\/strong> again the Circular Movie Night<\/strong> of the Circular Economy Forum Austria - an evening that combined cinematic power, professional exchange and social responsibility.
Together with our partners UNIDO<\/strong>, Vienna Energy<\/strong>, the EU Environment Agency<\/strong> and the UN Global Compact Network Austria<\/strong> we welcomed more than 220 guests. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A strong start: Panel Discussion on Resources, Deep Sea & Circular Economy<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The evening began with a high-calibre panel of Panel Discussion (in English)<\/strong>, moderated by Berthold Kren<\/strong>. Experts from international organisations, science and business discussed the topic:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Panel participants<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Natalie Degger<\/strong> - Industrial Development Officer & UN Ocean Focal Point, UNIDO<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Jo\u00ebl Mensah<\/strong> - Circular Economy & Sustainability Solutions Expert & Circularity Lab Lead, Vienna Energy<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Diego Marin<\/strong> - Senior Policy Officer for Raw Materials & Resource Justice, European Environmental Bureau & EU Environment Bureau<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Nina Eisenmenger<\/strong> - Professor, Institute for Social Ecology, BOKU<\/strong>, lead author of the Resource Report Austria<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Together, they shed light on key future issues relating to resources, deep sea mining and the role of the circular economy in global change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Key messages from the panel discussion <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    The discussion centred around the question:
    How do we \u201efeed\u201c the transformation without breaking planetary boundaries?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    UN perspective: precautionary principle & global responsibility<\/strong>
    The UN is increasingly focussing on International co-operation<\/strong>, Innovation<\/strong> and the realisation of the Agenda 2030<\/strong>.
    Central to this is the Precautionary principle<\/strong>Protective measures must also be taken when there are uncertainties - especially in deep-sea mining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The role of NGOs<\/strong>
    Organisations such as the EEB<\/strong> play a decisive role as Pulse generator<\/strong>, Control instances<\/strong> and voice of civil society.
    They show ways in which Quality of life can be improved<\/strong>, without causing additional ecological damage - for example through Circular economy<\/strong> and Sustainable technologies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Urgent fields of action<\/strong>
    Particularly emphasised were:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Resource efficiency and circular economy<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Climate protection and energy transition<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Biodiversity conservation<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Resource consumption continues to rise at an alarming rate - both in Austria and globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Resource constraints as an opportunity<\/strong>
      Instead of inhibiting development, scarce resources can be Promoting innovation<\/strong>.
      The prerequisites for this are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Efficient utilisation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Clear political framework conditions<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Research & material innovation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        The discussion made it clear that, above all for the energy and mobility transition New concepts<\/strong> are necessary. Materials must be consistently closed loops<\/strong> be managed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Question of justice<\/strong>
        Countries with high resource consumption in particular Greater responsibility<\/strong> - and must also contribute significantly to the solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        How do we measure progress?<\/strong>
        Progress can be measured using indicators such as CO\u2082 emissions<\/strong> and Raw material consumption<\/strong> be evaluated.
        At the same time, it needs Uniform standards and binding regulations<\/strong>, to achieve real impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Future topic: Recycling of energy technologies<\/strong>
        For PV modules and wind turbines Recycling capacities already today<\/strong> must be taken into account - even if the large quantities will not be produced for another 20 years.
        The potential is already enormous and will continue to grow.
        Long-term goal: a Material balance through intelligent recycling<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The discussion showed impressively that the transformation will only succeed if we Think more globally, act more locally and consistently focus on circular strategies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Film screening: \u201eDeep Rising\u201c - A breathtaking look into the deep sea<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        This was followed by a screening of the documentary film \u201eDeep Rising\u201c<\/strong>, produced and narrated by Jason Momoa<\/strong>.
        The film showed the fragile beauty of the deep sea - and the risks posed by planned deep-sea mining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The central question:
        Are we prepared to sacrifice one of the last unspoilt ecosystems for the global energy transition's hunger for raw materials - or are there better ways?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The film's answer is clear: The circular economy is a real alternative.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Exchange, networking and new ideas at the get-together<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        At the subsequent buffet in the foyer, guests, speakers and partner organisations came together to talk about impressions, solutions and visions.
        The evening showed once again how valuable spaces are for interdisciplinary exchange<\/strong> are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Conclusion: An evening that lingers on<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        The Circular Movie Night 2025 made it clear:
        The future does not lie in new extraction limits - but in cycles, cooperation and courageous political decisions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Thanks to our partners<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        This evening would not be possible without these partnerships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
