Abstract：

Zero Waste movement has been embraced by local communities in many cities to regain sustainability and vitality through waste prevention and recycling in recent years. This paper takes two communities, Bo01 in V?stra Hamnen and Augustenborg, in the city of Malm? in Sweden as the examples to illustrate the cross scale efforts by various stakeholders in building the recycling common space in local communities. The efforts include building pro-recycling environment in neighborhoods, planning recycling facilities for separated waste streams at the municipal level, and redefining the responsibility in waste management in the legal system. The conclusion provides several implications to the urban circular economy policy in China.
