What is the simple meaning of life-cycle thinking?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Considering a product’s impacts from raw materials through reuse, recycling, or disposal
Life-cycle thinking examines environmental and sometimes social impacts across the product’s entire journey: raw-material extraction, manufacturing, transport, use, and end-of-life management. Reuse, repair, recycling, recovery, or disposal may occur at the final stage. Considering only price or use ignores important impacts, so A is correct.
