2. Take-Make-Destroy: Exploring Unsustainable Production-Consumption Systems and Policies to Address Product Destruction
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutetSammanfattning : The practice of product destruction, whereby retailers or manufacturers dispose of viable consumer products such as unsold goods or consumer returns, is an extreme expression of the linearity of our current production-consumption system. This qualitative exploratory study aims to uncover why companies engage in this highly unsustainable and resource-inefficient behaviour, and to explore the potential policy interventions required to effectively address the issue.
