Introduction to Repair and Re-use
About this training
The overproduction and inadequate management of waste can have significant environmental impacts, including:
• Land, water, and air pollution
• Contribution to climate change through greenhouse gas emissions
• Depletion of natural resources
The repair and reuse of products as part of a circular economy is therefore crucial for reducing waste and, consequently, minimising environmental impacts.
