A young Australian woman prone to headaches had one that lasted over a week, and was accompanied by blurred vision. An MRI and subsequent brain surgery revealed the alarming and nauseating reason for her aching head. According to CNN, the pain was caused by neurocysticercosis: tapeworm larvae that had taken up space in her brain. The CDC says people contract the parasitic infection by swallowing eggs found in the feces of a person who has an intestinal tapeworm. The parasite makes its way to humans when people consume undercooked pork.

With the BMW i Vision Circular, the BMW Group is demonstrating the consistent design of a car according to the principles of a circular economy. The overall design goal of this visionary vehicle was to create a vehicle that is optimized for closed material cycles and achieves a rate of 100% recycled materials or 100% recyclability. In addition to bio-based and certified raw materials, materials that have already passed through a product life cycle – so-called secondary materials – are used for this purpose. This also applies to the energy storage system: The solid-state battery of the BMW i Vision Circular is 100% recyclable and almost completely made from recycled materials. At the same time, it will achieve a considerably higher energy density with significantly fewer of the most valuable resources.“We have included circularity in our concept right from the start when designing the BMW i Vision Circular. That's why this visionary vehicle is full of innovative ideas that combine sustainability with new and inspiring aesthetics – we call this approach Circular Design,” explains Adrian van Hooydonk, Head of BMW Group Design. Circular Design is based on the four principles RE:THINK, RE:DUCE, RE:USE and RE:CYCLE.
