Description We have many products in our homes that, after a period of time, cease to serve their purpose and, in the best-case scenario, end up at recycling centers or in dumpsters. In many cases, these products still have value and can continue to be used, rather than ending up in a landfill. We will therefore explore which technologies and other measures help extend the life of products, utilize their remaining value, and consequently increase wealth. However, this also raises the question of what kind of wealth we are talking about (economic, environmental, social)?
