Product design decisions and environmental trade-offs
Sustainable product design examines material, manufacturing, use and end-of-life choices together. A change that improves one stage can shift impacts elsewhere, so a useful learning enquiry needs a defined product, intended function and decision context.
Compare possible designs using transparent assumptions and relevant evidence. Discuss durability, repair, packaging and supply-chain constraints alongside environmental considerations. Subject learning can help frame the analysis; it does not substantiate an environmental label or certify that a product is sustainable.
