  • Potential for lower lifetimes and usage of second-hand products compared to new products.
  • Possibility of increased product circulation leading to greater carbon emissions.
  • Rebound effect (overconsumption) leading to additional carbon emissions.
Mitigation Strategies
  • Conservative approach used to avoid overrepresenting emissions savings.
  • Additional control questions in surveys to account for social desirability bias and uncertainty.
  • Accounting for additional circulation and rebound effect in calculations.
  • Using a weighted average of a representative substitutable product to account for variance in manufacturing impact.
