Book 26, Question 148
How can inventors make things that are kind to the planet?
Eco-design means thinking about the whole life of a product: where the materials come from, how much energy it uses, how long it lasts, and what happens when it is thrown away.
Inventors can use recycled or plant-based materials, make things easy to repair, and design products that use less power. Small choices in design can add up to a big difference.
