Summary The rapid technological evolution and adoption of consumer electronics highlights a growing need for adaptive methodologies to evaluate material consumption at the intersection of technological change and increasing consumption. While dematerialization and the circular economy (CE) have both been proposed to mitigate increasing material consumption, recent research has shown that these methods may be ineffective at achieving net material use reduction: When focused on specific products, these methods neglect the effects of complex interactions among and increasing consumption of consumer electronic products.
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the waste, plastic, and recycling industries. More recyclables are being disposed of in the traditional waste processes. This challenges the goals of sustainability while stressing the need for a systems-level approach.
