Synopsis
The present economic system requires us to consume and throw away more and more goods. Yet often it's our desire, and the best interests of the environment, for these goods to last. The contributors to this book, who comprise many of the most significant international thinkers in the field, explore how longer lasting products could offer enhanced value while reducing environmental impacts. If we created fewer but better quality products, looked after them carefully and invested more in repair, renovation and upgrading, would this direct our economy onto a more sustainable course? The solution sounds simple, yet it requires a seismic shift in how we think, whether as producers or consumers, and our voracious appetite for novelty. The complex range of issues associated with product life-spans demands a multidisciplinary approach. The book covers historical context, design, engineering, marketing, law, government policy, consumer behaviour and systems of provision. It addresses the whole range of consumer durables - vehicles, kitchen appliances, audio-visual equipment and other domestic products, furniture and floor coverings, hardware, garden tools, clothing, household textiles, recreational goods and DIY goods - as well as the re-use of packaging. Longer Lasting Products provides policy makers, those involved in product design, manufacturing and marketing, and all of us as consumers, with clear and compelling guidance as to how we can move away from a throwaway culture towards an economy sustained by more durable goods., Dr Tim Cooper is Senior Lecturer in Consumer Studies and Head of the Centre for Sustainable Consumption at Sheffield Hallam University. After graduating in economics he worked in industry for fifteen years, latterly as an environmental consultant, before establishing the Centre for Sustainable Consumption in 1996. His research interests include the life span of household products, environmental policy, and consumer attitudes and behaviour. In 2004 he was awarded funding by the EPSRC to launch a Research Network on Product Life Spans. He was appointed External Evaluator by the Ireland's Environmental Protection Agency in 2004 and Foreign Expert Evaluator by the Belgium Federal Science Policy Office in 2003. Previously he was Specialist Adviser to the House of Commons Environment Committee for its enquiry Reducing the Environmental Impact of Consumer Products. He has undertaken consultancy work for a wide range of industrial and environmental organisations and has written two books and numerous papers and articles.
