30、arked with a letter.Answer the questions bymarking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.CompaniesAre Working with Consumers to Reduce WasteA)As consumers,we are very wasteful.Annually,the world generates 1.3 billion tons of solid waste.This isexpected to go up to 2.2 billion by 2025.The develo

31、ped countries are responsible for 44%of waste,and in theU.S.alone,the average person throws away their body weight in rubbish every month.B)Conventional wisdom would seem to suggest that companies have no incentive to lengthen the life cycle oftheir products and reduce the revenue they would get fro

32、m selling new goods.Yet,more and more businessesare thinking about how to reduce consumer waste.This is partly driven by the rising price of raw materials andmetals.It is also partly due to both consumers and companies becoming more aware of the need to protect ourenvironment.C)When choosing what pr

33、oducts to buy and which brands to buy from,more and more consumers are lookinginto sustainability.This is opposed to just price and performance they were concerned about in the past.In asurvey of 54 of the worlds leading brands,almost all of them reported that consumers are showing increasingcare ab

34、out sustainable lifestyles.At the same time,surveys on consumers in the U.S.and the U.K.show thatthey also care about minimizing energy use and reducing waste.D)For the most part,consumers control what happens to a product.But some companies are realizing that placingthe burden of recycling entirely

35、 on the consumer is not an effective strategy,especially when tossing somethingaway seems like the easiest and most convenient option.E)Some retailers and manufacturers in the clothing,footwear,and electronics industries have launchedenvironmental programs.They want to make their customers intereste

36、d in preserving their products andpreventing things that still have value from going to the garbage dump.By offering services to help expand thelongevity of their products,theyre promising quality and durability to consumers,and receiving thereputational gains for being environmentally friendly.F)Fo

37、r example,the Swedish jeans company Nudie Jeans offers free repair at twenty of their shops.Instead ofdiscarding their old worn-out jeans,customers bring them in to be renewed.The company even providesmail-order repair kits and online videos,so that customers can learn how to fix a pair of jeans at

38、home.Theirphilosophy is that extending the life of a pair of jeans is not only great for the environment,but allows theconsumer to get more value out of their product.When customers do want to toss their pair,they can give themback to the store,which will repurpose and resell them.Another clothing c

39、ompany,Patagonia,a high-endoutdoor clothing store,follows the same principle.It has partnered with DIY website iFixit to teach consumershow to repair their clothing,such as waterproof outerwear,at home.The company also offers a repair program第 4 页 共 9 页for their customers for a modest fee.Currently,

40、Patagonia repairs about 40,000 garments a year in their Reno,Nevada,service center.According to the companys CEO,Rose Marcario,this is about building a company thatcares about the environment.At the same time,offering repair supports the perceived quality of its products.G)In Brazil,the multinationa

41、l corporation Adidas has been running a shoe-recycling program called“SustainableFootprint”since 2012.Customers can bring shoes of any brand into an Adidas store to be shredded and turnedinto alternative fuels for energy creation instead of being burned as trash.They are used to fuel cement ovens.To

42、 motivate visitors to bring in more old shoes,Adidas Brazil promotes the program in stores by showingvideos to educate customers,and it even offers a discount each time a customer brings in an old pair of shoes.This boosts the reputation and image ofAdidas by making people more aware of the companys

43、 values.H)Enormous opportunities also lie with e-waste.It is estimated that in 2014 the world produced some 42 millionmetric tons of e-waste(discarded electrical and electronic equipment and its parts)with North America andEurope accounting for 8 and 12 million metric tons respectively.The materials

44、 from e-waste include iron,copper,gold,silver,and aluminummaterials that could be reused,resold,salvaged,or recycled.Together,thevalue of these metals is estimated to be about$52 billion.Electronics giants like Best Buy and Samsung haveprovided e-waste take-back programs over the past few years,whic

45、h aim to refurbish(翻新)old electroniccomponents and parts into new products.I)For other companies interested in reducing waste,helping the environment,and providing the sustainablelifestyles that consumers seek,here are some first steps for building a relationship with customers that focuseson recycl

46、ing and restoring value to products:J)Find partners.If you are a manufacturer who relies on outside distributors,then retailers are the ideal partner forcollecting old products.Power tool maker DeWalt partners with companies,such as Lowes and Napa Auto Parts,to collect old tools at their stores for

47、recycling.The partnership benefits both sides by allowing unconventionalpartners(for example,two companies from two different industries)to work together on a specific aspect of thevalue chain,like,in this example,an engine firm with an accessory one.K)Create incentives.Environmental conscientiousne

48、ss isnt always enough to make customers recycle old goods.For instance,DeWalt discovered that many contractors were holding on to their old tools,even if they no longerworked,because they were expensive purchases and it was hard to justify bringing them in to recycle.Byoffering instant discounts wor

49、th as much as$100,DeWalt launched a trade-in program to encourage people tobring back tools.As a result,DeWalt now reuses those materials to create new products.L)Start with a trial program,and expect to change the details as you go.Any take-back program will likely changeover time,depending on what

50、 works for your customers and company goals.Maybe you see low customerparticipation at first,or conversely,so much success that the cost of recycling becomes too high.Best Buy,forinstance,has been bearing the lions share of e-waste volume since two of its largest competitors,Amazon andWal-mart,do no
